My wife filed a false dowry case against me and my parents in India, even though I’m living in Australia. She left our home six months ago and only then filed the complaint with the police. They didn’t even investigate properly and registered a case against us. My parents have already received bail, but what should I do?

You should immediately consult with a lawyer in India specializing in dowry harassment cases. They can help you challenge the FIR and address the allegations, particularly since your wife left six months ago before filing the complaint. Your lawyer can advise on legal options and strategies to protect your interests.

My wife has been staying at her mother’s house for the past 6 months, taking care of our 7-month-old baby. Now, she refuses to return home and has filed a dowry harassment complaint with the police.

My husband and in-laws are holding onto some of my precious jewelry, silver items, and furniture. During our son’s celebration last month, they gifted me some jewelry, including a ring, chain, and bracelet. I’m willing to return those gifts, but they’re asking me to sign papers to get my belongings back, which I’m hesitant to do. I need my jewelry for future investments as I handle all our expenses and my son’s needs without any financial support from them. I’m currently living with my parents. Can you suggest a way to get my belongings back without resorting to divorce or signing any documents?

My husband has been disrespectful, and I couldn’t bear it anymore, so I came back to my parents’ home. They’ve spoken with his family, and they agree he needs to apologize and promise to change.

Previous Article We’re building our house in Ludhiana and our neighbor has filed a case against us, getting a stay order on construction based on untrue claims. They say we encroached on public land (which is completely false and the municipality will verify), that we had a fight (never happened, no police report), and that we damaged a pole (there isn’t even one there!). We have a court hearing on the 18th to dismiss the stay order. If it’s not lifted, what options do we have? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
