Dear Experts. I am currently facing an atrocious situation which has led me to post this question. This is my brief introduction. I am a 38 year old male working in Bahrain not so happily married and blessed with a child. From my side I have both my parents and a Younger sister who suffers from down syndrome staying in Central Suburb in one of the house. My wife and my child is currently staying in her Granny's 2500 SQ FT house which is located at an upscale neighborhood in South Mumbai. Her family consist of her Grandmother , Her mother who is a divorcee and her younger sister. My wife is more qualified as she holds a double master degree and working in an IB school as a head of department. She Stayed with me in Bahrain for two years but did not continue due to health, weather and home sickness.
Now the story begins. My father Sold his Single ancestral house a year after I got Married which was in Prabhadevi Mumbai and bought Two houses in Central Suburb One house where my parents and my sister stays and second house which was being held in joint name viz My Father, Myself and my Wife ( her contribution is zero except for few pieces of furniture and household items). 99 percent of the consideration paid by my father through Cheque and 1 percent out of my Savings. This was done as a Love and affection for both myself and wife so that we can lead a happy married life. But little did we know that my wife's intention was to pull the wool over our eyes. Apparently my marriage is running into deep trouble as their Lust for money has increased and I am not able to satisfy their monetary needs given my salary is not that great. In-spite of my financial pressure I am sending my wife Monthly Money for expenses which is all through online Transfer without fail.
My wife and my Inlaws are now demanding and threatening me to put pressure on my father to relinquish his name from the second house, sell this and Give my wife her Share failing which they shall use all their might and contacts from Dons - Police - Politicians to seal our property , Auction it and bring us on the roads. Also they have threatened to put all of us behind bars using DV act and they even admit that they have an upper hand as Laws are women Friendly and can use it at their own will. We have not asked for any dowry nor did we Harass her and infact Me and my Parents are victim of their Harassment. Also They are putting pressure on me to leave my Job in Bahrain and come back to India for good which I don't want to and my wife is refusing to relocate. I can leave my job here in the present situation and they have threatened me to have me deported from here.
Given the above situation we would request advise from experts so as to Defend ourselves and go on the offensive the legal way. How do we protect the remains of our ancestral house from falling into wrong hands and prevent her from calming her Share for her own and her families selfish needs
