In laws harassing for dowry already receive good amount of money


10-Apr-2023 (In Divorce Law)

my in laws took 25lacs on pretext of doing preperation of wedding on our behalf but only record of only 14lacs is there and remaining there is no record as cash was given. during ceremony inlaws showed only 5 lacs to public and their own car keys as being given by us, to which they say now that we did so in order to save ur reputation as did not give anything whereas on ceremony day they told as dat car could not be booked so quickly but will definately do so after marriage for now you can show my keys. wedding preperations were not even worth 5-6lacs, they have kept entire money with them.

Dear Ma'am, You may file a compliant of dowry harassment against your in-laws if that is the case. If you are happy with your husband then there is no use of filing any complaint. You may also file a complaint for domestic violence if so needed. Regards,

You have remedy under dowry harassment laws and before that you have to file a police complaint to the nearest police station and based on that you can file a case against your in-laws in the court. But before doing so just try whether is there any possibility of settling the issue through elders of both families. If they dont yield to your requests then they are punishable under Section 498A of the IPC.

If your in laws are demanding dowry from your side, it is an offence under dowry prohibition act. You can file the case under dowry harassment act. Exactly what do you want? You want to know about the expenses or other.. You can contact for further clarification in this regard.
