1. Immediately file a Police Report narrating extortion incidence and mention information of the cheque and seek help from police. Take receiving (stamp / signed) of such application put up before local police and keep it safely.
2. Immediately make stop payment of the cheque from your bankers.

Once you do above two first thing in the morning contact a local Advocate. Your marriage is under 1 year old. You cannot file divorce. But she can file criminal complaints as you say she filed some Police report and people came in jeep load to you and threatened and extorted valuables (cheque) from you using threat.  All these are grounds for cruelty to you as well as criminal case against them can be easily filed hence advised to contact an local advocate. Now to your last question on divorce or they not filing criminal complaint etc. after giving them 6 lacs cheque, my opinion is that they will still do what they have to do.

Law says pay money as per mutual agreement of parires in consideration of Mutual Consent Divorce to close the marriage by a decree in divorce and not out of Court as that does not carry any value. hence the money which they extracted by musle power is of not much use. Who knows tomorrow they may come with two jeep full of musle men / agent and extract from your three say another 3 lac or 10 lac yet she neither stays with you nor there is a divorce except every fortnight people comign and askign money !.

If you want to close marital obligations from her then with that amount you can seek MCD (Mutual Consent Divorce) in a short while and for the same you need a neutral person as mediator to talk to both sides and handle the money part as per Law.

The immediate actions that you need to take are fairly suggested by tajobs in 1. and 2.

 

 

Yours is a practically peculiar case....Hire a lawyer Via Reference to take you out of the entire marital Mess...

if you have solid documentary evidence against  them ,immediatly file a case of extortion against them . if they already filled false 498a move to hoghcourt for fir quashing.
