Legal Question in Family Law in India
I was married in 2002, had a daughter in 2003. My husband was extremely violent, used to cheat people with their money and took away all my belongings. We separated in 2004 and I moved to another city. I filed for a divorce case and the decision was given ex parte because he never turned up. He was aware of all the things going. In the meanwhile, I also learnt that he has been changing identities. I got the divorce in 2006. I also got my daughters custody based on the divorce.
Since then, he has visited us a few times to meet my daughter. I moved to the Gulf in 2008 and now my daughter who is 9 is also with me.
I learnt that his parents died and now he is all alone. THe issue is that out of sensititivy, I never stopped him talking to his daughter or meeting her even though he never spent a penny on her. However, lately whenever he calls, he shouts at me and abuses me saying that I have taken away the child form him. All of this is worrying me a lot.
What should I do? It has been 9 years since I am staying by myself and I dont want him back. I want to know if I can renew my daughters passport without his permission. Also, he said his passport got burnt (he anyways has changed his names thrice without any legal process.). Is there anything I need to do to prevent him from approaching us? or are we already safe? I have been polite to him inspite of the fact that he used to beat me a lot and took away everything. Bu the is misusing my politeness toward him. Please guide.

As you already have got divorce and even the child custody is with you, legally he cannot trouble you. If you are staying in gulf then where is he staying. how can he stop the passport from renewal when custody is with you. you can file the certified copy of the judgment/decree of divorce with the passport authorities.
