File a case aganist your husband and in laws for harassment and torture under the provisions of Domestic violence act in Judicial magistrate court at your area. You will get remady. As per this act you are entitled for the shared house where you leaved after your marriage. Don't worry. Even if they are reach, if your claim is true, you will get justice.

You can file a petition for restitution of conjugal rights in the Family Court. The Court will do counselling and advice your husband to treat you well. You can even ask for mediation. The Mediator can advice the husband and his family members. If you go to Police station, it will create unnecessary problems and your husband may not take you back forever.For any further advice/assistance, kindly contact me.
