My husband has been abusing me for 4 years. I can't take it anymore. My parents don't support me and he forces me into a physical relationship against my will. Says he has license to do that and so do my parents. His parents try to dominate me and blame everything on me. I'm a working Lady. He takes away all my money and sold all my jewelry without asking me. I lost my respect. Can u please advice me way to get out of this relationship?
More over he hits me a lot and manipulates the incident in front of my parents. Blames I have an illegal relationship outside marriage. Fights over petty issues. When I tried to kill myself unable to bear the torture my in laws were concerned abt their izzat and not my life. He's always suspecting me and fighting with me and even though I live with my in laws in the same house, they claim they never heard him screaming at Me. BTW its a 1100sft apartment. Father in law states that its a woman's job to satisfy husband sexually. And if I'm hit by him I have to bear the pain and not fight. Literally, they treat me like a slave even though they live on my earnings. My kids are not attached to me thanks to them. They don't let me spend time with kids. When I try to they go out taking my kids with them. Being a working woman, they want me to do all the household work. And k get no love and respect in return.
1)you can file complaint under domestic violence act against your husband before magistrate and seek a protection order
2) you can also seek alternative accommodation from your husband in said complaint
3) refuse to hand over your salary . you cannot be forced to hand over your salary to your husband
4) you can also file for divorce on grounds of mental cruelty and seek custody of your children
5) marital rape is not an offence in india .
1) there is exception to Section 375 of the IPC that says sexual intercourse by a man with his wife, who is 15 or above, is not rape even if it is without consent.
2) no law can force you to stay with an abusive husband .
3) since you are working and can stand on your feet you can if you so desire walk out of the marriage .
4) you can also seek return of your streedhan in your husband possession which he has allegedly sold
1. I wonder what is forcing you to continue this relationship as it is not possible to pass days with this person.
2. If your husband does not perform then teaching him a good lesson is your duty to yourself and the society.
3. File a case u/s 4098A, 406 IPC against all of them, File a case under Domestic Violence Act as well.
4. Then file a suit for dissolution of marriage.
Do not bear the pain silently,
1. You may file for divorce on the ground of cruelty committed by your husband.
2. In addition to filing for divorce you may also file proceedings under domestic violence law to claim compensation for the cruelty which you ave suffered at their hands.
3. Criminal charges for assault can also be filed against your husband.
4. You may also file for maintenance for yourself and your kids.
You may also file a case of child custody to get the custody of your children.
Your next step will depend upon your will power to fight against evils. Blaming unchastity by husband is a valid ground of divorce for wife. You are a working lady so you should live separately. file a petition before district judge court for taking guardianship of your child. mother is the natural guardian of child below the age of five years. You can file FIR under section 498 A IPC or file petition under D V Act and seek accommodation order, this order will prevent your husband and your in laws to enter in your premises in the same house.
1. It seems tht you are in a bad marriage,
2. Decide finally whether you wan to come out of this bad marriage or continue with it,
3. If decided to come out, go all out and file a police complaint u/s498A before the police after audio recording all their torture, file DV case,
4. After that file a divorce petition on theground of cruelty,
5. Since you are a working lady, leave that house and stay with your parents or in a rented house.
1. Collet all evidence of their tortures and file the 498A complaintagainst all their family members and DV case as suggested in my earlier post,
2. File a child custody case,
3. Before coming out of their house select the place whee you ant to stay and complete collection of all evidence and your personal articles/belongings once for all.
