Hi
The factual legal position of adultery is as follows:
1) Adultery is a ground for divorce.
2) Only a man can be prosecuted for the offence of adultery under the IPC.
3) An adulteress “wife” is absolutely free from criminal responsibility.
4) The Adulteress "wife" cannot even be punished for “abetting” the offence.
5) Adultery law, assumes that the “ Adulteress wife” was a hapless victim of adultery.
6) The husband of adulteress "Wife" can file the case of adultery against the man under section 497 of IPC.
7) Wife of the man, who had consensual sexual intercourse with another woman, married or unmarried, is not deemed to be an aggrieved party and is not eligible from making a formal complaint against either her husband or the adulteress woman, but the wife of the man can file for divorce on the grounds of adultery.
Hope this information is useful.
