This query is : Resolved
my wife filed a 498a on me and my family and I was arrested and secured bail but the other family members took stay arrest from HC which referred the case to mediation. in the mediation centre she claims that she wants to be back and it was due to her fathers indulgence that she filed such case and did not wanted me to be arrested. the mediator asks me to take her back for a month and if it works we can live together but after arrest I dont think I can ever forget the torture I went through and its a trap to get me more into trouble as their case do not seem to be strong enough. Pls suggest whats ur advise.

Certainly it hurts and wound wont heel up early. But forgiving is the best, forgive your wife and accept her and let her give a statement at the time of investigation that complaint was at the instigation of the parents and put her a condition that she should not meet her friends. Before taking decesion discuss with your family members.

be firm on your decision and don't make any decision under pressure. bring her back only if u want to. its very crucial decision and if u are double minded, then don't bring her back.

Naturally, after such type of humiliation, nobody would like to associate with such a family member who had become a cause of such a humiliation. BUT, the proverb "Subah ka bhoola agar shaam ko ghar wapas aa jata hai to bhoola nahin kahlata." So, if intentions of your wife are not bad, you can consider reuniting with her. However, you can impose your conditions that, she must give in writing that she expresses her regret over his complaint and that she does not have any grievance with your behaviour and also she had to file the complaint only under pressure from her parents and that she wants to take back her complaint unconditionally. If she does so, you may consider taking her back. After all it is a question of one month only for the present and you can decide later after you see her behaviour.
However, for this crucial period of one month, while you should keep all types of restraints, you may also not let any secret shared with her and also keep all the valuables beyond her reach. Your other family members may also keep watch over her activities during that period, specifically when she talks over phone to her parents.
