Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

Please answer all of my questions as requested earlier. I am living with my parents for the last 1.6 years. My husband and in-laws and sis-inlaw tortured me , asked for dowry, car etc and wud not let me cohabit with my husband. I lodged a complaint with Women cell Nanakpura, the mediation failed. My husband produced an admittance list of Stridhan which was incomplete. An FIR was registered this year-Aug 2009, the case has been sent to Dwarka court and proceedings r on. Previously my hubby refused to return my stridhan, dowry articles that r lying at their place as I came bk empty handed-without clothes, furniture, electronic items on 27/3/09. My case is being fought by a pvt lawyer and women cell IO is also representing my case. The judge today instructed the lawyer of respondents to give my stuff bk. My hubby is supposed to return my stuff on this Friday in Nanakpura women cell.My hubby and in-laws hv got interim bail. If they do not give my entire stuff and stridhan then shud I accept the stuff which is being handed over to me and dispute the balance articles? Will my case become weak if I accept only a part of Stridhan. I am dead sure that they do not want to return my entire belongings. Can I request the IO on Friday to issue arrest warrants if they do not give my complete stridhan. I do not want divorce. On what grounds can my hubby, in-laws be arrested and their bail cancelled. My husband is hell bent to take a divorce and is playing with the legal system. I have also filed DVA 2 months bk and the 2nd hearing is on 22/9. Husband had filed a divorce case in Tis hazari. I have also filed a case of maintenance. I am working and earning 30k. How can I get together with my hubby. Is there any law to teach my greedy in-laws a lesson. I am married for 3.5 years and want a quick resoultion.

in case they do not return the entire stridhan, you may accept what they giving and dispute the balance. the IO would record this in his file that there is balance stridhan to be given. in case you want to patch up with your husband, then fight the case of divorce filed by him in Tis Hazari. the complaint under domestic violence act needs to be disposed off within two months and why it has not been disposed off so far.
