No. A divorce case based on the ground of cruelty will not permit the police to arrest the husband. Even in the Domestic Violence cases also police will not arrest. Police will arrest the husband in Section 498-A, 406 IPC, if there is a proper complaint from the wife carving out such offences and the husband fails in the mediation to convince the police there is no need FIR, then only he will be arrested.

Are you posing this query to get him arrested or from the fear that he may get arrested.
For the former, 1-2 members in this forum will kindly assist with Section options .
For the later you don't have to worry.
