This query is : Resolved
Dear Respected members ,
Many thanks for your so kind uidance
I am well settled in my life professionally ( Btech MBA) and my parents are retd officers.
WhyI want the istreedhan back...( Though it consist of only clothes, books , my ancesteral jewellery which i gifted her and some petty items of my late wife ) as its the only memories of her for my daughter who is now 3yrs.
I knwo my wife filled false 498A/406/34 on advise of her sister etc and left faughter with me when she was only 1 yr old and she regretted by giving her life......after nearly 20 mnts of seperation.
How can I file the application for getting istreedhan back ( as my parents got stay from high court on 498A/406/34 and indirectly me also got relief as trial is on hold)
Thanks a lot
Regards
JM

repeated query. One advice: subsequent query should be raised in the same thread for clear understanding of facts by all experts.

Dear Maninder,
I don't think your concept is correct about Streedhan, as items gifted by a husband to a wife that too without any Gift deed cannot be considered as part of streedhan.
Usually the following items come within the category of streedhan:
1) Gifts made to a woman before the nuptial fire.
2) Gifts made to a woman at the bridal procession
3) Gifts made in token of love by father-in-law, mother-in-law
4) Gifts made by father
5) Gifts made by mother
6) Gifts made by brother
May your items with your ex-wife be of intangible value, but your emotional attachment has the concern about such items, which actually belong to you and your daughter.
Better you file a separate suit to claim your items or may have to wait for the outcome of the existing case. But only those items can be claimed, which have not been given voluntarily by your parents. Such items can be inherited only by your daughter, as advised by Mr. Rajeev.
