I am very sorry to read your sufferings and I have sympathy with you.Donot get dishearted. You have to fight back to get your right and for said purpose you have to go by stratege.In the circumstance you write to UK court giving your reply and also bring to the notice of UK court that you have no source to contest the case at UK and demand maintenance from your husband. To suggest other steps detailed facts are required to be examined and the divorce case filed by your husband is also required to be seen for which a personal meeting is necessary.Call me on my mobile for any other query/assistance and appointment.
Re: got cheated thro marring a UK citizen
yes, there is a way. You may send your defence to the court in writing by post.
You are also entitled to file a case for maintenance against your husband in the court in India where marriage was solemnised.
Impotency of husband is a ground for seeking divorce by wife; if you want to divorce, you can file a case in India; you may also seek compensation by way of permanet alimony as also temporary alimony.
