No. But as you know false cases can be filed by anyone. You can defend when she files any such cases.

living separate is no bar for filing a complaint under dowry laws. you need to hire a lawyer and he would file an anticipatory bail in such an event.

Your marriage is too young. If you have no disliking for the girl, you should make all possible efforts to bring her back and try saving your marriage.

Good Luck.!!
