My sister’s in-laws have been causing her a lot of trouble, so we had to file a police complaint. We want her to live separately from her husband, but his family refuses. The police officer referred the case to the court. What kind of decision can we expect from the court?

The court can order your sister’s husband to provide for her maintenance and separate residence under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. The court will consider the severity of the harassment and the possibility of reconciliation before making a decision.
