Legal Question in Family Law in India
-->
Dear Sir,
Thanks for the reply. This is with reference to the question i asked.
Dear Sir,
I am in very much trouble. Please help.
I am married to this guy in october 2009. We are of different caste and both are working living at NCR. We already knw each other from last 2 years and the presented himself a very nice person infront of me. He became my good friend at times and then last year in 2009 he propsed me for marriage. I asked him to talk to my parents with his parents but no talk happened. then he again approached me after 2 months and again the same thing happened. after 3 months, he approached directly my parents for the marriage and then talked to me. His parents and family met to my parents and decided for marriage. At that time guy and his family pushed for early marriage saying that guy has to go abroad for client work. All happened in sudden and we went to their place for marriage and did all marriage rituals as per their concerns and thei respect as they said that their respect should be well treated. My parents gave all the required things for our home from scratch to all things including all furniture kitchen etc as me and my husband both lived in a rented flat at NCR(ghaziabad). that home is in agreement for my husband's name.
Soon after marriage problems started , and i saw a new face of the guy. . He always wants to be respected in a top manner I don't understand how. I always give him the respect I have to give him, but he is not satisfied with that. If I have to tell him anything he says I am starting an argument and always said like tht being a wife you are supposed to do this and that and always be ready to tolerate. He doesn't want me to talk anything and ask anything from him. Till today he hasn't given me anything for my expenses as well as for the expense to be done for house like daily needs etc other than the rent of the house saying that its the duty of woman only to work for home and take care of husband in all the ways and as you are working so bring all the daily needs by yourself. He always wanted to me to leave the job and be reside to in-laws place only as this should be the primary duty of a woman to make service for in-laws and not to object husband for going here and there.
He started use the abusive language with me saying that its the common male behavior. My in-laws also support him and say me to bear all these things being a woman. Soon he started to ask for money for launching a company and also did physical harrasment to me. He started to threaten me to leave me in lurch if i would not obey him by leaving my job and fulfilling his money requirement. His father and sister also support him. He never take care of me and thinks me as an object only , not a human.
In january he performed a shoking drama infront of me and left for US in january without giving me prior information and no contact since then by phone. Before going he has thrown me out of the home and threaten me that he will not take me back if i would not leave the job and bring money for his company. Later on, he is threatning me saying that its was an intercaste love marriage and i will ruin your life and social status if you will not obey me.Currently i am living with my mother .
Sir, please suggest me what should i do as i am alone to handle all these situations not having no male member (brother and father) in family ?
Regards

--> Here i have one more concern is that the guy and father-in-law are threatning me and my mother on phone . I dont have his US contact number also and they r not providing it to me. I sent him mail asking the contact number. Then he started sending me mails full of false facts in the manner so that he will show himself infront of the society again an innocent guy similar way he did to me before marriage. in mails he is putting allegations to me saying that i have done torture to him and he has given his all money to me. His parents say that you cant do anything and if you go to court also we will prove you false with our false allegations. Sir i m very much afraid . Will his mails be against me even he said everything wrong in it only to harras me mentally .?

--> Thank you so much sir for giving me some positive thoughts as i was very very depressed due to the current situations. One more query here I have -- should I start legal processings in the absence of my husband as he is in US currently or should I wait for him to come back to India ?

YOUR CASE IS VERY STRAIGHT YOU FILE A CASE BASING ON HIS PASSPORT NUMBER THEN THE REST OF THINGS GOES IN LEGAL WAYS AND ALSO YOU CAN FILE CASE ON YOUR IN-LAWS AND MENTIONIG YOUR HUSBAND NAME AS A-1(ACCUSED) AND JUST SEE THE RESULTS YOU GET IN YOUR FAVOUR. ALL THE BEST
You don't need to wait for him. You can file a case against him anytime. You can file a case at that place where your marriage proceedings were done or where you are residing after marriage and send him a summon over there where he is currently residing.
You may go ahead with filing of criminal complaint without waiting for his return.
