My sister was married to a boy about one year back as per hindu rituals and traditions. The boy represented that he is in service and also doing part time business. since the boys sister was my sisters friend we believed in them.
However, after marriage following instances aroused our suspicion :
1) Within 3 months of marriage he told that he left service and want to start his business so he shifted to another city. Again he stayed there for hardly three months and then shifted to say B city and then after 3/4 months to C city.
2) In all these places my sister stayed with her in hotels for short periods.
3) He kept changing his business/mobile nos frequently.
4) Recently it came to our notice through a paper publication that the boy had taken a big loan from a bank for his business in 2008 and has been declared defaulter in 2012 ( before marriage). This fact was not known to us.
5) We also came to know that the boy has cheated other persons as well and cases of NI Act is pending against him.
6) Keeps changing his residence address and defaulted on rent/maintenance also.
7) When we confronted him about the above facts, the boy and his mother have disappeared / left their last residence and now not traceable although calls to my sister occasionaly still trying to dupe her.
8) Sister of the boy is actively involved in the scheme and is in full knowledge of all the things. The boy, mother and sister regularly used to pressure my sister to bring money from his parents on some pretext or other or used to request for loan for short period for business.
9) Now the boy and his mother is simply untraceable but sisters address is known to us.
PLEASE ADVISE
A) Whether this marriage can be annulled on the ground of fraud Sec 12 (1)(c) of HMact since he did not disclose /misrepresented his financial status as he was already a defaulter of bank before marriage.
B) Can His fraudulent nature is established by his behaviour like changing business places/ residences/ phone no. / sec 138 NI Act cases.
C) Whether we can file 498a also simultaneously against boy/mother/sister , since boy and mother have fled.
D) Unfortunately marriage was not regd but proof of marriage are there. Whether this weakens the case ?
