My husband refuses to grant me a divorce despite the abuse I’ve endured. He’s mentally and physically tormented me, even confining me to the house whenever he leaves. He now threatens to expose personal photos and WhatsApp conversations if I remarry. I have a two-year-old son, and I desperately want to escape this situation. What can I do?

You can file for divorce under the grounds of cruelty and mental harassment, citing the abuse and confinement. Additionally, seek a restraining order to prevent your husband from sharing private information and ensure your safety. It’s crucial to document all instances of abuse with evidence, and you should consult with a lawyer to explore your legal options for protection and custody of your son.
