Hello,
I am a foreigner married to an indian wife, but my marriage is not consumated, i.e. she is still a virgin.
She is in India, while I am overseas.
My wife is threatening me to file for divorce, alimony and maintenance till she re-marries (perhaps never - which means I will pay maintenance forever). She is well educated (has a Masters degree), but unemployed at this time.
One lawyer told me that I should divorce her and give her the divorce and 3 months maintenance for iddat period, and she will not be able to claim maintenance after the divorce.
Another lawyer told me that I should wait for her to divorce me, and claim in my defence that the marriage is null and void because the marriage is not consummated.
Can anyone please help/advise me which course of action should I take?
Please help,
Aby Chan.
