you can file case u/s 494 for the offence of bigamy for which she could face imprisonment for seven years and fine

Don't file case u/s 494 bigamy unless you have solid proof. This may back fire you at later stage.

No she cannot do so, it will only complicate her life further. Who filed the divorce, U or UR wife?

Thanks all. I could not come to online for these days.
I filed divorce after 1.5 years waiting for her to return to my home. She left and blaming me and my parents even she did not lived my parents event two days together.
She was asking very huge money which could not pay and waited till 4 years of divorce process. Still nothing moved from course. She is comming asking to pay half of what she asked now. Her layer telling wanted to get divoce and go further life.

SEND A COPY OF THIS TO HER LAWYER;

You are already advised. Prosecute her for bigamy after getting proper evidence.

Mr krishna
its clear that if she gets married without getting divorce then she will be in trouble like above said u/s 494
but one more thing i want to high light you that if she gets married without divorce then it is a strong point in your divorce petition without paying a single paisa because if she marries then your lawyer can file a petition in the divorce case and also have to submit the evidence which easies your contested divorce in your hands and they will come to you for some relief
so dont worry ball is in your hand and start gathering evidences and do not interuppt their moves

You should prove the marriage.
Living together is no ground.
If you can prove the marriage, I suggest that you should utilize the proof for easily getting divorce only, not for sending her to jail.
