Hi, My fiend got married 5 yrs back. Post marriage of my friend his wife and her parents started disturbing my friend and his family by creating all sorts of nuisance, and interference. Specially on a sill fact that my friends family is grat follower of God and perform puja. every Tuesday and saturday they eat strictly vegeterian food and even if any guest comes on these two days (Tue & Sat ) they offered special vegeterian food. But at no cost my friends family will bring or cook any Non Veg food on every Tuesday and saturday. However on other remaining 5 dyas they bring and cook Non veg food. There comes the problem from my friends wife is thats she is telling that she wants to have Non Veg food on all 7 days of the week. In due course of time her parents also interfered in the matter and asked my friend and his family that if they dont allow her to have Non Veg food on all 7 days she will not stay there. In due course of time on this matter and other daily household problems my friends wife created she left for her parents house and staying there for last 3 yrs. though her personal belongings is still there at her matrimonial house. My freind and his parents asked her to come back and even asked her parents to send her back. But they didnt listen. Out of no option My friend have filed a RCR against his wife. The case is pending in the court for nearly 3 yrs now as on date. Now my friends wife is threatening that if my friend doesnt withdraw the RCR file in the Court then she will lodge a false complaint of Torture with cruelty and dowry demands under sec 498A.
My question is that can my friend`s wife now lodge a compalin of under sec 498A . she is not living with her husband or at the matrimo nial house for last 3 yrs which all of their relatives and neighbouurs know very well.
Pls advice
