After 7 years of relationship with a divorcee , we finally got married-in May 2023 where he ran twice, 2 days before marriage last year. After marriage 3-4 days he was normal then he started using home as hotel, came home 2-3 at midnight and left home at 9 in the morning lying about his work. Stopped talking to me.Started blaming me for every bad thing happening in the family , started body shaming me and abuse sexually. later I found out that he’s cheating on me with the same girl I caught with multiple times while our relationship phase. I explained everything to my MIL and she took me to girls place to make her understand that he’s married now and she should stay away from him. My husband out of anger made allegation on me for having nude video calls with different guys after marriage and he was disturbed and that’s the reason he went back to that girl. when we demanded proof ,he showed me my half nudes photos which were saved in my phone to see the journey of weight loss.he warned his family to send me back home else he’ll jump off the building. Later he called up my brother and showed him my single nudes which I sent him during our relationship just to prove himself right…and blackmailed my brother not to send me back home else he’ll viral my pictures! After I filed 498a he’s continuously harassing me by sending police station videos, puting the complaint as his WhatsApp status and texting my friends and relatives . And at the same time he wants me back putting our pic together with caption made in heaven. Plz suggest what should I do?

No he hasn’t shared my pictures on internet but he has shown it personally to his friends and family.he still has it in one of the spare phones. That is the reason that cyber cell is not logging my complaint. I m working but don’t earn that much. It depends if I have any projects in hand, my all projects came from his contacts only.he kept me engaged so that he doesn’t loose a contact with me. After all this he has done to me divorce is the only thing, I don’t want any maintenance just want him to be punished for making my life hell. My family is all scattered he did a false fir on my brother, my dad went under depression. He is the most selfish person on this earth, he doesn’t even care about his family , only roam around with beaurocrats . When ever he get caught he blames the other person, make several stories or emotionally blackmail to suicide. He has an attracting personality so I m scared that he’ll make the court believe in his lies, although he doesn’t have any proof.he’s manipulating the world that I lost interest after marriage ( where I waiting 7 long years to get married to him)he’ll not give divorce to me at any cost. Narcissistic abuse is not a crime in India yet, nor is Adultry. I am very mentally disturbed ,need your suggestions 1)taking my nudes from my phone without my consent and blackmailing my family on this behalf publically is cruelty right? 2)taunting me on everything. 3) adultry 4) he didn’t even spent a single penny on me ,no gifts on marriage , b’day.entire medical and personal expenses were made by me which I took from my dad. 5) theatening me that he has good contact in police and court 6) his first wife also sent an application for DV application via her lawyer. 7) any way to delete my pictures so that he doesn’t threat me in future.

Engaging in activities such as sharing personal photos with friends becomes problematic when it infringes on privacy and consent. It's important to note that divorce is no longer solely under the control of one spouse, as either party can initiate the process. In cases where one partner commits adultery, this act can be considered a form of cruelty and serve as grounds for filing a divorce case. However, it's worth considering that using adultery as a reason for divorce might be challenging to prove definitively. Beyond divorce proceedings, it's possible to seek maintenance and financial support. For more personalized guidance, it's advisable to seek detailed legal consultation.
