Parental child abduction

There is no link in between the abduction apprehension of your child and managing property matters and these issues are separate.  Contact any advocate in India for proper guidance.  You can not proceed against any of his personal assets unless you are having joint ownership even when the husband abducts his own son.  Your ex-husband before resorting to any such actions certainly takes and considers the repercussions by speaking to his advocate.  I do not know whether a father taking his son amounts to abduction or not.

The facts posted suggest that the actions, if any, needs to based on the law in force in your place of your residence.

Where you have taken divorce in India or America If it is in America then you contact local advocate and issue legal notice to your exhusband If he cheats then approach court in America and take legal action against him.

Prevention is better than cure. Don't give consent for the child's passport or if he already has then keep it with you and don't give it to your ex husband. If he already has it, then get a court order to take it back and deposit with them or the department of state. Also passports for minors have to be renewed for every six months.

If still manages to abduct the child despite all your efforts, then no worries. You can file a writ of habeas corpus in india in the concerned high court and they will definitely ensure that your child will be put back on the flight to u.s.a within a month. There are several cases where did that.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the replies! Filing writ of habeas corpus in India would only be useful if I would know his whereabouts. What is the remedy if he travels to India with our son and goes underground?

Firstly, sorry there was an inadvertent error. Minors passports have to be renwed every five years, not six months. As for habeas corpus, dont worry about him going underground. With court orders, child can be produced in court.
