Under Indian law, you have no legal recourse to “get her back”. An adult has the right to choose where they live, and your partner’s family cannot be legally compelled to return her to you. If she wishes to return, she must do so of her own free will.

I was accused of being involved in a bribe case. The person who gave the bribe confessed to the police that he deposited the money in someone else’s account. The account holder also told the police that he received the money and gave it to me, even though I never actually received it. The police issued a warrant for my arrest, and I went to the police station. During the investigation, I admitted that I never received the money and wasn’t involved in any fraud with the accused. However, the accused later denied his confession in court. The account holder is going to testify the same way in court. I’m worried about what to do next. How dangerous is this situation for me?
