While ongoing case can I send friend request to wife's friends
19-Feb-2026 (In Divorce Law)
I am facing domestic violence, dowry , cruelty, abuse cases from my wife.
Can I send friend request to wife friends on social media, if I don't talk about my matter with them just connect them casually so it will also shown as cruelty against my wife or not ?
Sending friend request to wife's family and friends will consider as cruelty while ongoing cases or not.
Because she had added most of my friends and family members defame me after talking with them but I don't want to do the same mistake.
you are facing domestic violence you can apply to the judicial magistrate for protection order you can file a petition on mental cruelty under the Hindu marriage act you should avoid them stalking yoh

Aapke case ke dauran patni ke friends ya family se social media par connect hona galat arth me liya ja sakta hai aur court me aapke khilaf “cruelty” ya “harassment” ke roop me dikhaya ja sakta hai. Behtar hoga ki aap kisi bhi prakar ka sampark na rakhein aur apni baat sirf legal madhyam se hi rakhein, taki aapka case majboot bane rahe.

Merely Sending friend request or follow request to your wife's family and friends will not be considered cruelty against your wife
It is protected under Article 19 and 21 to do so you can talk to anyone as long as they want to talk to you.
But you have to cautious about subject matter of your conversation , text messages are admissible proof in the court as long as you don't defame your wife or harm her reputation or question her modesty and chastity it's safe to talk
trying to contact wife or her relatives who don't want to talk to you from different numbers repeatedly may cause you trouble cause it may fall under Harassment
Moreover you can file a defamation case against your wife

During pendency of domestic violence/dowry/cruelty matters, you should maintain complete restraint and avoid any direct or indirect contact with your wife, her family members, or friends on social media. Even a casual friend request can be misinterpreted and may be projected negatively before the court.
Every matrimonial case depends on specific facts, stage of proceedings, and allegations involved. A proper strategy should be planned only after examining your complaint, FIR (if any), court orders, and previous communications.
For detailed legal advice and case strategy, you may share complete documents for professional consultation. Proper guidance at this stage is very important to avoid complications in ongoing cases.
