She has taken our belongings and furniture in multiple visits. She now threatens to use the law against me with the support of her family. I am very worried. Is there any legal recourse available to help me?

You have grounds to file a case for restitution of conjugal rights and custody of your daughter. Additionally, you can file a police complaint against your wife for theft and harassment. Consult a lawyer immediately to discuss specific legal options and proceed accordingly.
