You immediately change your lawyer for obvious reasons and file a complaint in PS near your house regarding the threats. Changing the advocate might be the best way to go ahead. Feel free to reach out in case you face issues in Women West PS.

Since the lawyer’s act amounts to criminal offences, you can file an FIR or written complaint at your nearest police station (or Women’s Police Station where your main case is pending). Section 384 IPC – Extortion / Blackmailing Section 506 IPC – Criminal Intimidation Section 409 IPC – Criminal Breach of Trust (since he misused your documents) Section 420 IPC – Cheating Section 500 IPC – Defamation (if public disclosure made)
