All gifts received by her from every one friend or relative including that of your parent is her property and belonging and is
called STRIDHAN upon which neither you nor your parents have any claim.Even if that is in your custody ,in law. you or your side of people in whose custody it is would treated trustee there of on her behalf and are duty bound to refund the same on demand as failure to do so shall attract criminal breach of trust.

The demand of receipt in the married life is unheard. No one can believe that the FIR is the result of just dual conversation of the same day or your demand of receipt and her refusal or alleged threatening is the result of the behaviour of the same day.

You have suppressed the material facts leading to such situation. Until you post the true facts leading to such situation, exact reply cannot be given.

I want to know will me or my parents get anticipatory bail easily or from the lower court or i have to move for high court.

i have few favourable points i.e

1. My marriage was dowryless. copy is available.
2. her previous record is available that she has put 498a/406 for her previous husband and extorted huge amount of money.
3. She has taken her stridhan six months back. her receipt is also available.
