your brother has done a mistake by simply entering an agreement to divorce instead of approach the court by way of filing a petition for divorce by mutual consent. hire a competent lawyer to get out of this mess.
There is no divorce in eyes Law if its not granted by court of Law, by simply executing a Rs.100 stamp paper as "divorce agreement" you can not dissolve a marriage. Get a legal advise as soon as possible.

Approach local lawyer or send us your complete detail and location may be we can help you at your place. but frankly speaking your brother is not divorced and court will cancell his agreement and his second marriage will be null and void. So better to defend your case with an expert lawyer else your whole family will be in trouble. you may send your query at [email protected] or contact us at 09814110005
Is your brother uneducated ? Please clarify. There is no Divorce and his wife has filed criminal case against him , He has to face it.
such divorce is null & void and therefore legally there is no divorce. You can approach a local lawyer and defend the case or go for settlement.
divorce is not valid.
