Hi,
I asked the same question in response to my another thread but no body replied so I am posting it here again. These are simple basic questions so I think all lawyers have knowledge of them and at least one lawyer can reply and help me by answering them.
My husband married to another girl without giving me divorce.My husband and his girlfriend both have accepted ISLAM religion and become Muslims before marriage. I want to punish him for what he has done with me and my 7 years old baby. If I file [a] a domestic violence case or [b] dowry case or [c] Move a complaint under section 494 IPC for contracting another marriage during subsistance of a legal marrage then
1. In which case [a or b or c] will he be arrested immediately by police and I will not have to wait for his arrest till the court’s judgement?
2. In which case will it be a non-bailable arrest whether arrested before or after court’s judgement ?
3. what is the minimum and maximum punishment under case A and case B and case C?
4. How long [month or years] generally it takes in getting a judgement in case A and case B and case C?
5. I heard that there is No Arrest During Two Months Cooling-Off Period After FIR Registration of dowry cases and domestic violence cases. Is it true? Does the same apply to 494 ipc?
Please help.
Serious reply only. No jokes, no gyan please.
Thanks.
