Is it 2012 or 2011?

 

Its been 265 days that i got married,after 2 months we have been to America,there started my problems are I.e he started harassing me for extra  dowry and also he has  an affair with his colleagues wife..

Any proof you got such as VDO recording, photos, emails, sms, call records to prove the said extra marital affair? If no proof, simply it wil become one more allegation toward your husband.

 

He showed me what exactly the torture is?one day he gave me abortion pills with cool drink,then  I got admitted in hospital,I lost my baby,doctors asked me the reason,

 

If you have medical records, you can do something, but even there they would have taken your signature first and then your husband's signature before taking you into OT, so there too nothing much  can be done.


I dint inform about my husband cruelty coz ,my husband warned me if u inform this incident to police our relation will get spoil,i want to save my marriage so I never revealed this to cops or my parents..

after 2days  i.e on 25th april,2013,he booked flight tickets to india saying that,his  grand ma is serious,then we came to india ..there after again his family members and my husband started harassing me for 10 Lakhs extra dowry,my dad gave assurance them ,after getting retired He will give to my husband an extra share,coz I have another sister to get marry...so now I.e on 13th July,2013 we came to my mother home for a festival then after my husband went out to bring sweets ,from then he escaped to America,I tried to call their  parents ,there is no response from his parents,after enquiring I got to know that they have also escaped from the city....

Quite unusual, escaped?  


Same day I have filed a case ,police booked FIR on my husband nd his family members..my husband still in America ,and his family members are still in escape p

What kind of case have you filed?  Missing case?  Dowry case? 

 

1)how can I file a case in America,coz I'm in india now
You should have filed complaint then and there itself.



2)how can I approach human rights commission in dHyderabad.

On basis of desertion.

Please help me I don't know what to do..

In this case, i want to appeal a case to human rights commission on my domestic voilence issue and how can I approach to American consulate . or american cops

For that first you should know where they are residing. Like if they gone to America, then you should tell consulate ppl where your husband is residing/or working.  WIthout that no use doing anything.

Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Advocate)     27 April 2014

You need not file any case in USA because the case is registered in India and perhaps USA does not have so strong laws to protect dowry victims.

 

Indian National is liable for crime under IPC even if the same is committed outside India.

 

Yours is not a first case.  Read carefully what Mr Helping Hand advised. 

 

consult your lawyer on the future course of action. 

 

If the police does not cooperate with you for extradition then you can approach NHRC (but procedure is time consuming )

I have lived in USA and I do have friends and family in USA. This is what I would suggest. If your husband escaped so quickly that means you also may still have valid USA visa. You know his date of birth and full name so contact USA department of state and USA department of homeland security. His name should in they database and his port of entry. Once you know his port of entry then contact that state's senator via email. USA politicians are very professional than India's politicians. There is local US consulate hot line number also. If you have USA visa and you can pay 10 lac dowry then you can afford stay in USA too. I'm ISA no layer charges fees to file domestic violence case or divorce case. They take share in alimony. I hope this helps. You should have taught them lesson in USA itself. Never bend on any dowry demand.

@ Dhanesh have you tried calling that toll free number at American Consulate ? I am sure you didn't ! B'coz they won't give any personal information about anyone just like that. Homeland Security and State department (Are you calling off a strike on terrorist ?) deals with federal cases and they won't reply unless contacted via proper channel and now in this case everything has to be done via ministry of external affairs there is no choice and there is no option. If you don't believe me try it and see how far this matter will go. It seems you know more about U.S. law then you should know that "Privacy" issues are taken seriously in U.S.A. If i was you then i would have advised author of this forum to follow everything via ministry of external affairs. They will help her much than anyone else.

Send e-mail to MUMBAIF@state.gov and copy it to  support-india@ustraveldocs.com first and see what they have to say. I should know that you are telling the truth then I will direct you to homeland security agent's direct phone number and e-mail address.

External affairs minister is busy finding faults with modi and kejriwal so it won't be of any use. India's PMO never replies but US president office sends reply in a month. I have tried it myself. Check this page. https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact

India's external affairs minister had replied back to my e-mail after 6 months by that time my situation changed.

I am waiting on that reply from American Consulate. Please post what homeland security or any other federal agency has to say about this.


(Guest)

I am getting confused here. Who is the actual victim? Do not wait for reply for more than a week.  Send one more e-mail. You cannot ask them anyone's information over the phone as they follow strict privacy rules. Provide information to them like Name of the person as it appears on passport. Date of birth. If you know passport number then it is even better. If you know social security number then nothing else is required.

1.    It is a urban legend; mixing OTC abortion pill in coke and causing abortion.

2.    Only a seasoned criminal who has number of years of experience of hard crime behind him plans so meticulously; finding locally that coke and pill =abortion and actually doing it upon you ! + within next 2 days comes to India + demands neither 8 lac nor 12 lac but 10 lac + then in few hours vanish from India !!!. I mean are we answering average spouses queries here under family law forum or trying to attempt a hardened criminal spouse query, even if I am made to ignore wrongly mentioned date/month/year r/w facts in your brief!

3.    Your alleged charges will not sustain in Court of Law is my view as alleged incidences happened outside boundaries of India and for that permission of the Govt. has to be sought as per Law to admit and conduct a trial on an Indian citizen i.e. your Husband. I strongly disagree to one of my ld. brother response here on IPC vis-à-vis  trial on an Indian living outside Indian boundaries in reference to this brief.

4.    Serving him Court Notice is via Min. of External Affairs of the criminal allegation complaint matters that has been filed as you inform me, that also after seeking permission from Govt. if at all he can be tried based on complaint alleged facts which all happened outside Indian territories between spouses.

5.    To give it Indian jurisdiction color (for admission – admitting it) one is bound to type that ‘HUGE dowry was asked that also from my olding – retiring father r/w I have an un-married sister too Sireeee when we came back to India' - which are most common colourful para which we encounter in such complaint cases to get Indian jurisdiction colour.

6.    Thus cry of Human Rights violation is a false cry.

7.    Is your father patronizing commercial transaction by promising to pay after retirement then your father is equally responsible to create Human Rights violence upon you; his daughter. Paradigm of Human Rights also cautions once parents not to weigh their daughter with promise of HUGE money giving in future to a son-in-law / In-laws family!

8.    Read thoroughly 28 pages long INDO - US Extradition Treaty especially Art. 2 about crimes that are recognized by USA allowing your hubby to be extradited from USA by an Indian LC. Hundreds of Women lobby in India are trying their hard to include offence related to domestic violence – marriage related IPC / CrPC Sections included in such Treaty for easy Extradition but so far have failed. You may set one example and become torch bearer by all means. Some months back I wrote a very detailed article here under Family law on Extradition simplicator; read it down and prove me wrong by all means.

9.    You say to me you are ‘Associate’ which rings bell that you are working in an IT / ITES industry. Hence seems to me that you are a young girl who obviously has a bright future ahead. Thus, here it is reasonable to advice you that in AP State of India they do ‘compounding’ of S. 498a / 406 IPC thus suggest you to get complaints compounded and march forward in your productive years instead of whimpering at non-adjustment phase of a young married IT/ITES Associates life trying to live in a highly developed Country; USA which is most common marital scenarios we see daily in such complaint cases coming from abrupt retuned bride from USA / Canada / UK / Australia / Singapore.

Leaving space over to Lord Chandra...... for his feline advice

Bro I am trying to mitigate your confusion about the U.S. govt. procedure. Even you know that these things are not possible and if you still don't believe it then i want to hear from you and that is why i am waiting on the reply from U.S. govt. The idea is not to ruin someones life just by giving false advices. As the above lawyer specified that girl sounds very young and she has bright future. The feeling of retaliaiton is not going to take her anywhere.
