yes she can divorce him and also can file a case under Domestic Violence Act.
Well a 498A case is a criminal case and it will take its course.
However for divorce, your friend will have to approach the Family Court.
If the husband is willing to divorce her then they may present a petition for
mutual consent divorce. Otherwise your friend will have to file a petition for divorce.
your friend have to file divorce case and she can also get maintenance.
For detail plz mail your query at [email protected] and send me location of your friend, detail of court where case is pending.
