You can file criminal complaints for theft, criminal intimidation and criminal breach of trust against them. On your complaint police can search their premises to recover all your stolen articles. You are also free to file for divorce on the ground of cruelty and also seek maintenance for yourself and your child from your husband. Compensation for domestic violence suffered by you can also be sought.

File case in nearest police station where you live with your child a domestic violence case. The police will definitely act and arrest the culprits. If police dont act, file a domestic violence case in court. The court will order for arrest of culprits.
