Yes, of course. She should file divorce u/s 13(1)(1a) of Hindu Marriage Act and along with that claim interim maintenance from the Husband in an accompanying application u/s 23, 24. She will also have to file a separate custody suit for the child wherein, Mothers always have the sympathy of the Court. However, she will also have to show in the custody suit as to how she is a better parent for the son than her husband.

You have to contest the said divorce and file appropriate case before the appropriate court. She can file a case u/s 125 cr.p.c seeking maintainance for herself as well as for her child and samutaneously file a complaint u/s 12 DV act before women's court.

Yes ofcource, she will get child custody and maintenance also. If there will be divorce by mutual concent then she will get both child custody as well as security money. Or if there will be contesting then also its a more chance to get maintenance for her and child. After maturity of a child its a child dicission to whome he/she want to live with. There are many numbers of cases which court gives child custody to mother for better care.
