What to do if wife wants divorce but husband has proof of her affair


28-Dec-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Its been 8 years that I am married , But I did not have a happy married life. My husband and I are working and my husband always concentrated on money rather than feeling or emotions. I got into an extra marital affair with my colleague and also he promised to get married to me if I got a divorce. But when I spoke about this to my husband he said he wont divorce me. And my husband also threatened my colleague to leave me. I dont want to live with my husband. But my husband keeps blackmailing me the chats or the photos he has and he is not ready to divorce me at any condition. He keeps telling me that I can go anywhere and do what ever I want but he wont divorce me. If I go to court he blackmails me that he will prove me characterless. Can I get a divorce ? how long might it take in this case? Will there be any action taken on my colleague in this matter. This colleague of mine promised to marry me . But now says he has changed his mind what action can I take

Dear Madam,
As per your query, you can get divorce from your huaband, for that you have to file divorce petition before court for decree of divorce and you can file criminal case against your co worker but before court you have to prove forcefully had sexual relationship with you.

You may try filing for a divorce and see what stand he takes in Court. He cannot harm your colleague so easily. My be your friend has been threatened by your husband. Later your husband cannot blackmail you.
