This is utter nonsense. You should have instantly called on 100. This is the clear case of insulting modesty of women. As a proof, record his act.
Same moment police arrest him and court may also refuse bail. File FIR u/s 509 IPC.
Lodge a complaint against him with the police. If they do not respond then file it before a magistrate.
You can record the same and file police complaint against her.
1. collect evidence like video recording and then make a police complaint through your wife or mother against the neighbor,
Install CCTV cameras in entrance of your house
2) record his abuses
3) your mother and sister should file police complaint against him for outraging their modesty under section 354 of IPC
1. You can file a Police FIR, requesting investigation and charge-sheet, for offences like Intimidation, Nuisance, Breach of Trust, Mischief etc.... against the person/s, supported with all relevant supporting Documents, Evidences & Witnesses.

Sir/Madam,
You are suggested to record some of his actions and file the police complaint mentioning all his activities ASAP.
1. If the make neighbor has used sland language against your wife and showed his male organ while urinating then it is a gross outraging of modesty and molestation of your eife3.
2. So if lodge complaint with local police station FIR would be registered and this may very well be arrested.
3. So unless you take recourse to law this nuisance is not going to stop soon.
If possible install CCTV cameras at your premises so that the acts of said person(s) are captured.

Your wife & mother can file complaint before local police U/s.354 & 509 of IPC for outraging woman's modesty & insult women by words, gestures or acts etc.
Asj your mother and wife to make complaint against him for sexual harassments, mental torture and threatening.

Dear Sir,
How to File a Harassment Complaint Against a Neighbour
Yes, calling a police if your neighbor harasses you is an option to go with. You have the option to call the police by just dialing the police number 100 and police will come to the place mentioned by you in the phone call. They will come to the spot and ask you the problem and then will take the action against them. And, when they will reach the spot you should be having sufficient proof to prove the harassment by neighbors.
Harassment Through Nuisance
You may be living in an apartment or in a duplex, often it happens, when you hear loud music sound from the neighbor’s house, you try to ignore that sound for as long as possible but sometimes, such noise may make life difficult. This type of nuisance is defined in Section 268 of the Indian Penal Act.
Section 268 of the Indian Penal Code defines nuisance when the person is guilty of a public nuisance when he does any act which causes injury, danger or annoyance to the public or the people in general who live or occupy the property in the neighborhood.
A common nuisance is not excused on the ground that it causes some convenience or advantage.
If this type of harassment is faced by you from your neighbor then, you can file an application under Section 268 of IPC in the court of magistrate.
Punishment of nuisance is defined in Section 290 of IPC, which is mere Rs. 200 but the court can do much more.
As a matter of fact, calling 100 is most effective as, after a visit or two from the police, such nuisance is likely to stop. In extreme cases, police may even confiscate the instruments that are used to cause nuisance like – loudspeakers or sound boxes, or drones, cameras or such other tools.
Sometimes, police does not intervene despite laws being there as they do not like extra work on their plate or because the other party is very influential. In such cases, you may need to take help of legal experts.
