Desertion Case Along With Live In Relationship


11-Nov-2023 (In Divorce Law)
This query is on behalf of my sister. She was married 10 years back. She is a working professional. Had taken a job In middle East 3 years back. Now when she come back and is working in India, husband is working in another city and it is putting false allegations of illegal relationships on her and wants to get separated. He later himself accepted of being in another relationship and staying with other unmarried Hindu girl as live in. For separation since my sister wants to move on she agreed but only after transferring all properties in her name. My sister had contributed a majority chunk to the 2 properties. Initially her husband agreed but now he is demanding a share of the property. Is it allowed for him to be in live in while my sister is alone and feeling cheated. Can he demand a share of property if there is enough evidence from the bank statements that his contribution was minimal and he was in the relationship only for having a lavish lifestyle?

Hi. live in relationship is illegal with the first marriage subsisting. hence, if you do not want to give him a share in the property, you are not bound to.

you will first need to send him a legal notice with reference to the same and if still things don't work out, you always have the option of going to the court.

If he is not giving property she can file civil suit against him and can show all the documents in the court of law. She can file domestic violence and divorce case against him and ask for alimony. Rest advise can be given after seeing property documents and knowing the matter in detail.
