Bigamy case

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 26 July 2011 This query is : Resolved
I am from Punjab and got married to my husband in 1984. He is an army officer and i am a house wife. We had a daughter in 1985. In 2008, he forcefully got married to another women without divorcing me. He suppressed me and my daughter by threatening and beating us. My daughter was studying at that time. He threatened me by saying that if i raised my voice, he would stop funding my daughter's education and if needed also kill her. Now after 3 years, my daughter is standing on her own feet and is married. Today i have nothing to loose and hence have decided to raise my voice against my husband. I want to take a legal action against him. Please guide me. Also, my husband has a son from that lady (2 months old). He has straightforwardly told me that he would not give a penny to me and my daughter from his self acquired property and would give everything to his son and the 2nd lady. Infact, there is plot in uttar pradesh which is registered on my name, however he has kept the registration copy and has refused to give me that also.

It is a clear-cut case of Bigamy. you can file a complaint case against your husband and his second wife. Before you file the case i suggest you to collect all documentary and circumstantial proofs of such second marriage. However he blessed a child from second wife but it would better you to collect the record of his birth as well.

In addition to Bigamy you can take proceedings against him under the provisions of Domestic Violence so that you can get more than one reliefs in a single complaint.
