I am working in an IT Firm.
I got Married to a Person working in IT on August 2012. I have been ill-treated by my husband and my MIL since then.
Ours was an arranged Marriage. When we got married he was working as an Software engineer. After marriage he lost his job within 2 months and started to depend financially on my income.Also started extorting all the savings I had. Since I was conceived then, I started falling into his trap and this did not stop with me, he also continued to bother my parents.This created problem between us and he left me alone at our house (in Chennai) and went to his parents home in another state without any information. My Parents took control over the situation and brought me to their home in the month of November,2012
Then he traveled abroad to a neighbouring country in the month of Dec,2012 for a time period of 3 months. He lost his job there again and I had to book the return tickets for him and we again stayed together till my child birth(he was jobless in this period and I have to take care of the expenses with my income). Within this period, I gave birth to a child (baby Boy) in May 2013 and he and his family misbehaved by physically abusing me in the hospital. After this incident, we never stayed until March,2014.
In March 2014, I lodged a complaint on him in CSR Police station,Chennai for not taking me back to my marital home. In the complaint I stated that he is not taking any responsibility of me and my Child and he started torturing me and my parents by unnecessary phone calls with verbal abuses and also abuse through messages. In the Police station, they sent us to a counseling to go on with our married life.
After the counselling, we lived together for 2 months and even in that 2 months, I did not live a peaceful life. He started abusing me physically and verbally more than before. He used me only for my income and for his financial needs.
Through my company, I got an opportunity to travel abroad(US) for one of my projects. He was the person who pushed me to travel with the kid and assured me that he would join in couple of weeks through his company. As soon as I reached US, He told me that he left the job and searching for another job.Since then I am taking care of my Kid. Emotionally and financially there is no one to support us. He never even had taken any responsibility or worried about our well being here. He used to just call me and bug for some of his financial needs.
After this now he has forced me to pay for his H1B applied through the consultant by calling my managers here in US from India and defaming on my official front. In spite of paying for his H1B(for which will come to know the results), he again reached out to my higher HR managers in India to send me back or to let him know my return date or to process his H4 visa from my company
Right now am not sure how to stop him reaching out to my office, also since he is jobless again he is troubling me to file his H4 visa, when i dint attend his calls he is trying to reach out to all my family and office folks to enquire about me.. He is trying to degrade my self respect among my relatives, friends circles and even in the official front which in turn disturbs my mental peace.
Kindly provide some guidance on how to deal with this current situation and any legal advice i can seek to save myself, My career and my kid from this.
