Legal notice to husband

I have been married for 4 years now. I have a daughter who is is 3 years old. I my husband lost his job after 3months of our marriage and and was remained jobless there after and since I was pregnant with then so I was sent to my parents house. Even after my daughter was born he did not bother to find any job. My parents had been tacking care of me and my daughter since then. He started taking out his frustration of being jobless on me. Finally he started physically hurting me and abusing me at my parents house and do my father asked him to leave from my house. I After that incident he never spoke with me and I came to know that he has left abroad for job through my in-laws. It has been one and a half years since I have lost contact with my husband. My in-laws call occasionally. My husband and his parents are not bothered by the about me and my daughter and he has not provided a single pause for my daughter since she was born. Ours is a Christian and marriage and we were able to married under special marriage act. I have taken all efforts to contact him but in vain.
