494 deals with the offence of bigamy. Getting married again during the subsistence of earlier marriage. Since it's of somewhat private nature. This is a non cognizable offence which means that the police would not register the FIR - they would note your information in a NCR diary and forward you to concerned magistrate. Note : they cannot investigate without order of the magistrate. Cognizance of such case can only be taken by magistrate on the complaint of person aggreieved (i.e the other spouse, her relatives, or even the person with whom second marriage done). The judge would examine teh complainant on oath - and then call upon the accused if he finds merit. 

Dear Experts,

If husband and second wife living at some place,first wife file complaint in police station that they are living here.

Then what is the role of police?

I also require answer to the same!

Moreover..........consider she BRIBES THE COPS on her complaint too. What the cops can do to the maximum to harm such guy, considering no "actual" marriage has happened?

If husband and second wife living at some place,first wife file complaint in police station that they are living here.

wife can ask for relief against this cruelty (498a), adultry (497) & bigamy (494).

what if the husband is married and is staying with the person he has done second marriage with and wishes to take divorce with the first wife on mutual consent. is it possible does the Indian court agree to it,

What if the second wife annuliase the marraige and get it null and void.

still the man will be charged for bigamy?  

still the man will be charged for bigamy? 

Yes

What is the sentence ?? Jail can in this the man never get divorced at all.
