My father in law needs some very urgent help. He was compelled to leave his own house in Delhi which is a single & complete owner ( not an inherited property) by his wife. He has been staying in rented accomodation for over 2.5 ys in Delhi alongwith his children ( my wife who now stays with me & a son ). His wife also filed false cases of domestic violence which she is on the verge of loosing. In addition after not letting him stay in his own house she also filed a case to claim maintenance which she has already lost . My father in law is a evry simple, peaceful person and his wife in turn is abusive and violent by nature due to which he is afraid to try n enter the house or take the posession of the house on his own. Efforts to get help from police have failed. He is 62 yrs old and in a very bad financial situation. Iam trying to understand what are the best options he has or what steps can he take to:
1) get the posession of his house/property back asap.
2) be able to sell the property so that he gets some money he can use for his retired life
3) how much share will have to legally give to his wife
4) should he file for Divorce and if so on what grounds ie harrassment etc ?
also how much time will it take for one or more of the above. Will really appreciate an immediate response.
