Hello Everyone! This case is about my brother who is a software engineer, My brother got married in March 2021 as because of COVID , he is still working from home, my sister in law has hardly stayed in our home , every 3 weeks her parents used to come saying that they wanted to see their only daughter and they used to take her to their home saying for 1 week and she used to spend nearly 2 months at home . This happened twice and for some small miscommunication, her dad used to come early morning without informing and take their daughter to their home(happened twice) After mid Jan , he took her daughter saying there is a marriage in their relatives and took all the Gold , clothes , everything and they blocked me , my mother and my brother from everywhere . After 6 months they asked us to attend religious court saying that their daughter wants divorce (Said there is no reason but it's just because their daughter wants divorce) and they signed a letter saying they want divorce and they will return our Gold . And nearly after a month of sending that letter , they have signed a petition with strong influence from Government officials saying that my brother tortured her for dowry, domestic violence.( But we not in contact with any of their family member since she left home which is in January). But my brother do have proofs(Screenshots of chats) that she was in constant touch with her boyfriend even after marriage. And we do have recordings in which they have clearly said that we never asked for dowry but for other reasons they want divorce. So what will be the consequences and what has to be done now? Please suggest your best thoughts and predictions through your experience and knowledge.
