It is under section 482 Cr. P. C. Getting "STAY" is not a matter of right but depends on merit and presentation of the case.

Hi! As stated above, the quashing of the complaint will be up to the discretion of the High Court. Evidence/list of reliable witnesses as to the fact that your wife had deserted you for a period of 20 months is likely to help your case.

You can move the petition under section 482 for quashing.
