Based on Indian law, your marriage is considered valid under the Special Marriage Act of 1954 as it was solemnized in a temple. The fact that you didn’t register the marriage doesn’t invalidate it. You can file a case for restitution of conjugal rights and seek police protection against your wife’s father’s influence.

I’m going through a difficult separation. I left my husband’s home in Hyderabad five months ago but waited to get my money back first. We bought a house together, and he took around 15 lakhs from me. Now that I’m moving forward with the divorce, he’s refusing to return my money. I live in Bangalore now, and he’s still in Hyderabad. I’m thinking of filing a police complaint in Hyderabad with a known ACP in the Family Police unit to help recover my money. Then, after about a week, I want to file for divorce in Bangalore. Is this the right process? Can I file a police case in Hyderabad and a divorce case in Bangalore separately?

My partner and I got married while I was under the influence of alcohol, but I didn’t know it was happening at the time.

But this person has stolen my important documents and is now claiming we’re married, demanding money. I’m terrified and don’t know what to do. Should I contact a lawyer or file a police complaint? I want to keep this situation private. Any advice would be appreciated.

There are recordings of their threats of physical violence and even death. What can I do to get a divorce? Can I prevent my parents, in-laws, and sister-in-law from seeing my child?
