You can definitely file a cases before the concerned Family Court, for getting monthly maintenance and for returning the gold and dowry. For getting maintnance the easiest method is to file a Maintenance case under Sec.125 of Cr.P.C before the Family Court, and for return of gold and dowry you can also approach the same family court.
If you believe that they are leaving the country, you can also apply for immediate arrest as interlocutory application along with petition before the Family court.

Hai,

There is a lot much to do in this case. but first you need to be sure about what to do with the future. Simply filing a case against them means throwing you to straight to the streets. Is there any chance of a re-union, the issue may not have raised from a simple/single day issue. Finding the root and mending it back is not a simple task. All these can be done with a proper guidance and series of talks. Its time to meet your lawyer fast in ur locality. A civil lawyer will do.
It better to file a return of money and maintenance case against them at the earliest. U will get the option of a counselling/mediation and even an opportunity to attach their belongings at the first strike itself. Dont go for Restitution/ Domestic violence cases. it will ruin any chanz for reunion.

Hope am upto ur query

You can very well approach the Family Court for recovering the money and gold retained by them. If you want maintenance and wants to reside with your husband or divorce , you have to file petitions before the Family Court.
