Hi frnds
Need your help in fighting this misused law of 498a and divorce
brief history :- wife filled 498a after 5months of love marriage and then after an year filled for divorce for which i filled that i dnt want to give divorce becaz i want her to resolve 498a then only will gv her divorce.Demand to take back case was around 50L at the time of mediation..so it failed.
Now its been 3 years since this is going on..
Divorce on evidence stage
she filled avidevit with below points
->me n my family cruel...abused mentally n physically
-> i m mental
->asked dowry
->characterless
->alchoholic
etc etc
My queries
1) initially her lawyer said that she is the only person who wants to submit her affidevit for evidence and did not give the list of people who will be evidence.... she wanted her evidences to be done asap ..she had to go abroad through her company
.After her evidences cross questioning was done... her lawyer said that even her father is an evidence and wants to give evidence..judge allowed this ----->is this ok?? my lawyer did not do anything about this saying "ladki ki to har jagah chalti hai " and accepted her fathers affidevit..but a lot of people told me that u should have raised a concern to higher judges..please advice
2) if only verbal evidence enough to prove sm1 guilty?..i mean like if she n her father says that they have given dowry but dnt have any bills or money transaction to show .. will that be enough to prove us wrong?
3) Is it possible for me at this stage to ask for divorce on the ground of cruelty ... asmy affidevit is that i want to keep her ..but now i m thinking if i could say that based on the affedevit and all the false claims i have decided to take divorce on the ground of mental cruelty to me n my family ..is it possible?
I will be really obliged if you could ans these queries..thank u
