          Divorce. Adultery is not a criminal offence in India.

              Agreed but the wife has threatened she might do worse

              Why was she sent to the marital home?

              Infidelity is no longer a crime. But it is definitely a ground for dissolution of marriage.

              Do not initiate legal proceedings till your cousin is sure of what he wants to do.

                  He didnt know how to process all this, so he asked her to go back home.
