Based on the information provided, the situation appears complex. The wife’s delay in signing divorce papers after agreeing to the terms and your subsequent payment could be construed as an attempt to delay the process. It’s crucial to consult your lawyer, as they can advise on the best course of action considering the ongoing dowry harassment case and the stalled divorce proceedings.
