Second Wife and Stay abroad

Fleeing away from India and getting married to another lady cannot be a solution to get rid of your first wife. Law can make you come to India and answer before Courts for your misdeeds wherever you are on earth. You should have thought of the consequences before getting married for the second time. Now all you can do is to face the consequenses. The only way out is to see that your wife doesnt file a bigamy case against you.

Marrying again during lifetime of husband or wife.--Whoever, having a husband or wife living, marries in any case in which such marriage is void by reason of its taking place during the life of such husband or wife, shall be punished with imprisonment of either descripttion for a term which may extend to seven years, and shall also be liable to fine. Exception.-This section does not extend to any person whose marriage with such husband or wife has been declared void by a Court of competent jurisdiction, nor to any person who contracts a marriage during the life of a former husband or wife, if such husband or wife, at the time of the subsequent marriage, shall have been continually absent from such person for the space of seven years, and shall not have been heard of by such person as being alive within that time provided the person contracting such subsequent marriage shall, before such marriage takes place, inform the person with whom such marriage is contracted of the real state of facts so far as the same are within his or her knowledge. 495. Same offence with concealment of former marriage from person with whom subsequent marriage is contracted.

being an highly educated person how you did it?

you married the second time;

First option - keep your first wife so happy that she do not go to court. only your first wife has the right to go to court. no other else.

Second option - is it registered or religious?   whether 'sapattapadi' done or not?   whether some witnesses are there and few of them may give witness in favour of your wife?  if yes then try to make the possibilities of witness negative.

if the case go to court, the court must bring you back at india. thereafter you may get bail and with permission of court you may go to abroad otherwise not.

From the above discussions, I know that there is no way I could stay away from being punished by law. Is there any possibility if my second wife gives a written statement that she is not going to be part of my life and is ready to walk away from my life. Will this be of any help to me. Now if I have to talk to my first wife, what must I tell her, please suggest.

Snehashish, it is a Statutory rule that any Govt servant cannot marry for a second time when the first marriage is valid. So, there is no chance that your sister get any benifits like gratuity, insurance, PF etc which are in his first wife's name. Even if his first wife is not alive, it is his legal heirs, who can avail the benefits, and not your iwfe.

Mr Rajesh.

If you have strained relation in 15 years then why you dragged this relation upto 15 yesrs. the main sufffer goes to childern comes out of marriage , they do not any fault to suffer because of strain relatioinship.

your views have contradiction, first u told about strain relation then again told that u love first wife also.

you could have check legal validity of marriage before 2nd marriage, why u wne t in relation if your second wife was ready to live with you without marriage. Love is Sacred and marriage is legsal boundation now a days.

Love do not marriage. Like "RADHA-KRISHNA" known as a sacred lovers in india or all over the worls and even worshipped together.

Take your first wife in confidence so that she should not find any case. Cases are unnecessary headache in society,, already lot of cases are pending againt courts.

My sincere request to all LCI members . Please advice Mr Rajesh carefully and with due thought/concern. Who knows today it is he who is in problem .. tomorrow it may be us.

See that u r first wife doesnt complain for the offence u committed Bigamy,though it is possible to bring you back to India its a long process(thru Interpol ) lot of cases are pending before courts when respodent/accused is abroad and notices are not served so far even if served they donot appear,it is possible not impossible better settle things amicably with u r first wife so that u will not fear of getting booked for bigamy
 

I tried to convince her, but she insists on taking to law, and wants to have my brought in front of law for bygamy. I am very much confused what to do or how long I have before I am brought back to India for trail or investigation. Please suggest how could I now protect myself.
