After marriage I found that my husband was already married what to do
22-Jul-2023 (In Divorce Law)
We have been married for 10 years now, have an eight year old daughter. At the time of my marriage my husband had a name of another woman in his passport which he did not disclose to us. years later I came to know about this and he gave lame excuses for the same. He does not have any divorce deed or document supporting death of the mentioned name. I do not trust him. Can my marriage stand illegal based on this. I want to end this marriage and he is not ready to divorce me. Please suggest. I want the custody of my child alone.
Mam u can register an FIR against ur husband for cheating.. U can file a divorce petition against ur husband and can ask for divorce as ur marriage is void and is not legal as it was conducted by means of fraud and cheating..

Hi,
Yes he can be charged for bigamy but you have to prove the relationship with another women as wife, as you have the sufficient proof that the name mentioned in the passport in the wife's coloumn is itself a sufficient proof of marriage unless he shows the death and divorce decree and you can also Make a Complaint before police authority for the fraud committed by your husband and you should file a divorce on that basis by showing the reason of cruelity and cheating and you should claim maintenance from him, and definitely you will get the custody of your child.
