Dear querist i have just given an illustration of the possibilities but not mandatory.There  are no judgements or citations u/s 406 filed by the husband on the wife.Do U have proofs that she is holding UR documents and jewels? First U have to concentrate on that aspect,when U file u/s 406,U should make sure that U R succesful.

Mr.Goheel, Practicalites are different from theory.One cannot blindly proceed legally which will attract further more complications.

406 is not gender based law

It means  criminal breach of trust.

Section 406 in The Indian Penal Code406. Punishment for criminal breach of trust.—Whoever commits criminal breach of trust shall be punished with imprisonment of either descripttion for a term which may extend to three years, or with fine, or with both.
