January 30, 2025 at 10:14 pmMy wife went to her parentโs home and started asking for divorce and alimony. I didnโt want divorce so me and my family requested her to come back multiple times but all efforts in vain.
I even came all the way to India from US just to convince her to come back. Few days after me coming to India, 498A FIR was registered against me along with criminal intimidation. The FIR said that I came to her home and threatened her that if she did not come back to me I will leak her private photos on social media. I was in a state of shock after reading all this. To make things worse they printed all this in local newspaper.
Allegations related to 498A are generic and lack specificity so they meet criteria of FIR quashing as no prima facie case is established.
But Iโm stuck with criminal intimidation section related to me blackmailing her to leak her private photos. I have evidence to prove that itโs wrong but unfortunately evidence is not considered during FIR quashing. Am i left with no option but to fight long drawn sessions court trial? I feel so miserable.
I mean is it so easy to give someone lifetime of pain?
Please help! -

January 30, 2025 at 11:08 pmDo not go for quashing then, You can do quashing for other family members against whom allegations are vague. For yourself, file a discharge petition when chargesheet is filed in lower court, which is 4 years from FIR typically. Please manage the police so that they say no specific concrete evidence against family is found in High court for FIR quashing.-

January 31, 2025 at 2:08 pmAll marriages are not high networth marriages. Your and my broke assess will probably get reasonable women who understand they have to work for a good future along with their partner. These high networth dudes get pig butchered. They spent most of their lives earning money for a luxurious lifestyle. Things like this are a part of it. Back in the day kings would be killed. Atleast now it’s just alimony. Enjoy your life atleast I guess.

January 31, 2025 at 1:03 amBro, do not worry. There are many similar cases happened with others.Good thing is public has identified all the rots in the judiciary system and the existing indian laws. Now citizens are well aware of them and understand the corruption practices on these rots. While India is yet to usurp the rot on papers, in practice lately, people don’t look down upon the victims. Rather the public consider the criminal-minded people who harass by misusing these rots are socially-discriminated more and more in the coming days.

January 31, 2025 at 2:19 amGood thing the police hasnt arrested you yet. You better leave India before the authorities stop you from doing so. If you leave she’ll have less power over you.Otherwise you’ll be needed to appear in court hearings physically and what not.
Once the case is closed use that newspaper publication they did to file defamation cases against her and her family. That will give you better negotiating power in out of court settlement.

January 31, 2025 at 2:23 amOh alright then. There’s nothing much you can do about the cases she put.Other than that you can prepare for the eventual discussion of interim maintenance when it comes up in court. Both the parties need to file an affidavit as per Rajnish V. Neha judgement stating their incomes, assets, liabilities, etc.
Gather this info about your wife and if you see that she’s giving hinding stuff in the affidavit you can file a perjury case against her on that basis.

Either the lawyers or your wife or both are going to make bank now. It’s the fate of people who cannot hold down a marriage and are rich also.Welcome to the great transfer of wealth and power.

January 31, 2025 at 2:24 amWhat was the root cause of this ? Were there conflicts between her and your parents or you which you didnโt try to resolve them. You can try talking to her and keep your ego aside. Just thinking she would not be idiot as you married her. N if your parents are indulging you need to tell them to step asideFrom legal perspective you can go n file FIR of mental harassment of your senior citizen parents

January 31, 2025 at 5:12 am1. First of all, be prepared to fight without breaking down. I hope you have already got bail. If not, apply for it and get one.2. You can go for quashing. You can also see if they are ready to compromise and settle the differences amicably. Ask her to withdraw the case on Criminal Intimidation. This may save a lot of stress and pain of going through all this. You may have to forego of getting back together, as criminal cases are filed against. You cannot establish the marital ties again.
3. When it comes to alimony, only if your wife and her parents have spent for the marriage solely, pay back up to 50% OR given you any kind of gifts or cash, return it. Otherwise if it is a short duration of being married, be firm on either paying a small amount as alimony or nothing. Suggesting this so that you can come out of the situation faster.
Suggestions are directed towards ending the legal battle swiftly.
