first of all you must obtain advice from good lawyer. your sister is lawful weded wife of his husband as per hindu marriage act. and without geting divorce he cant marry with another lady whether she was hindu or muslim. so pls contact with lawyer and take legal steps against him.

Smita,

Your sister can file a case of bigamy and adultery aginst your bro-in-law. Simentenously your sister can also file a case under domestic voilence. Take immediate steps since lot of time has passed and it will be difficult to produce witnesses and evidence if the matter is further prolonged.

there are a lot of cases in which it is said that conversion to islam only with intention to marry is not a conversion, so he is still hindu as the conversion from hindu to muslim was just for marriage sake, there are a lot of cases in which it is said, so file a case against him for adultry and biagamy and criminal breach of trust, with domestic violence act.

both Vishal and Tarun are correct.

 

one thing i must add...that his second marriage is null and void...after Shah Bano Begum's case, it has been categorically held that if the conversion has been made merely for entereing into another marital relation then such a marriage is null and void.

 

rest of the rights u may avail as advised by the ld. counsels.

sir,

i want advice as i had entered into settlement with bank for my non performing asset in 2004 to be paid in one year. but due to a court case which was in the knowledge of the bank i could clear my account on 19\6\2006. no notice was served to me for the delay and i paid all the interest for the delay period and reqested the bank to release my property , but till date they have not released my property and nothing has been served on me. kindly advise how should i proceed with bank as more than three years have passed and i am sitting without any work.

thank you

krishan
