Dear Client, 1. You may file a missing person complaint at the nearest police station since your wife has not returned and her phone is switched off. If you suspect an affair and desertion, you can also seek divorce on grounds of adultery and cruelty under Hindu Marriage Act (or respective personal law). 2. Collect evidence (messages, witness, call records) for court. Police will first trace her whereabouts; for divorce or marital remedy, you must approach family court with proper proof. 3. Consult an advocate to discuss your case in brief. 4. You may schedule an appointment regarding your case by phone or email at your convenience. Thanks & regards, Priyanka Advocate Coimbatore

I understand your concern. Since your wife has been missing for several days and her phone remains switched off, you have rightly approached the police. You may file a detailed written complaint at the nearest police station requesting them to trace her whereabouts. If you suspect an extramarital affair and continued desertion, you may also seek legal remedies such as filing for restitution of conjugal rights or divorce on the grounds of adultery and desertion under the Hindu Marriage Act. Please ensure you keep copies of all complaints and maintain evidence, as this will strengthen your case before the court.
