Divorce/ verbal abuse/ dowry/pregnant


16-Sep-2024 (In Divorce Law)
I got married in June. Actually my engagement broke off as the guy family was demanding money and we have voice recording proof. But the guy pleaded and somehow convinced me and my family for marriage. After marriage immediately MY MIL started to verbally abuse me and they were demanding jewels even though we told them it's not our capacity, they degraded my parents. Now I'm pregnant and my husband wants divorce. Under what section he is punishable I don't want him to have rights on my baby

hello mam, Felix here, I can well understand your concern from the query raised, you can file a petition for DVC to the magistrate court, and prohibition of dowry complaint to the local AWPS police station, you can contact me for further clarifications

Domestic violence and Dowry Prohibition acts come to our help. All these acts penalise the husband for there unlawful acts. Complaint can be filed against the husband and also he is liable and will be punished. Even the in laws will be punished for dowry harassment.
