Dear Eminent Advocate Members.. I seek guidance on the below case.
Case - this couple has been married for over 4 years. They fell in love during their post graduation and both families agreed. Both the boy and the girl were from decent respected families. Over years the marriage got difficult. The wife refused physical pleasures and husband got desperate. Husband had an affair with an unmarried girl for 5 months. He felt guilty and confessed the same to wife. Wife initially asked for split and later accepted him back. Meanwhile, husband was trying to do away with the other girl to ensure no complications. Wife again caught him talking to this girl and left the house they own together. Husband’s family has been extremely supportive of the girl and have always been her support. Inspite of this the girl’s family have now sent a legal notice (from advocate) to the Husband and his family members under fraud stating Dowry was demanded and that the Husband’s family got drunk during the wedding etc. Etc..Meanwhile, the wife’s family have gotten pictures of the husband and girl getting cozy during one of their foreign trips (these pictures were taken prior to the husband confessing and pleading for forgiveness). Now the Husband’s family who were always nice and supportive of the girl are devastated. Husband has not had any physical relation with the wife since almost 1 year (including 4 months of wife not living with husband). In fact, the husband has been true and not had Physical contact with wife after or during affair. Is there a way to medically prove this??
What are all the legal implication the husband and wife can face. What needs to done to safe guard the interest of the husband’s family. This is a pure case of misusing our law’s leniency towards women..(I agree its required but such misuse needs to stop. Most advocates use the non bailable Dowry warrant tool to harass men.)
