Legal Question in Family Law in India
My sister lives in Mumbai and her son got married in Jan 2011. The lady stayed with the family for about 3 months and then deserted them due to constant fights between the couple. Over the 3 years, there had been numerous meetings to set things right but nothing worked out. My sister then sent a legal notice for either coming back and staying with them else, file for a mutual divorce. This notice wasnt accepted by their family which lives in Vizag. On 30th June 2014, the girls father came with a police man to my place of work in Vizag and took me to the police station and under pressure made me sign a letter which said that i will get my sister and her family to vizag for a meeting with them. They arent ready to come to Vizag unless they are ready with some petitions they want to file
I did speak to a local lawyer and he is trying to get in the details of the complaint the girl's family has lodged with the mahila police. however, i am really worried that without any involvement of mine, they may come again on 15/july
Can you please suggest your opinion?

She must have filed a complaint u/s 498 A of IPC, in which all relatives including you may get implicated. Hence ask you sister to come to Vizag and try to compromise with them or else you all may head for trouble. You may have to take anticipatory bail or notice bail.
