Dear Sir,

You have to get Decree of Divorce from a suitable Court and only by the said Decree can your Marriage can be said to have been dissolved.
Even if you are not knowing her current address you have to make paper publication in a widely circulated Daily newspaper.

Hi
To file a divorce petition you will need a contact address, you can try and obtain it from her parents , relatives , friends, even you have her last known address , you can begin with that. Advisable to have a consultation with advocate for indepth discussion on facts of marriage to guide you further. You can contact me at divorcewhammy.com
