There are certain things that I would need to know to help you understand the course of action by the court

- What religion is the person from
- Is the marriage to both the wife's legally performed/accepted as per the community religion that they practice
- What kind of a case is challenged

Hi
The offence is bigamy and the offence is punishable with imprisonment for 3 years.
bigamy offences are generally non bailable.
so the person who is accused of bigamy should take proper legal steps to defend himself or else he will land in jail.
