My husband and his family harassing me


25-Feb-2023 (In Family Law)
I was married 9 months back. And my husband is in Mauritius. They are harassing me by saying that there is a ghost in the house and his family (sister) is not letting me meet my husband. Now I am in India and my husband refused to come India and take me back to Mauritius. What legal action can I take. I don't want divorce, I want to spend more time with my husband but his sister is not letting.

Dear client, you have an option to file a complaint against your sister in law under the provisions of Domestic.Violence Act. and you may also file a complaint to the women cell regarding the torture and cruelty you are going through, as far as your husband is concerned, he has a legal obligation to live with you in matrimonial home and if he does not do so, legal action may be initiated against him even in mauritius. but first i would suggest you to manage the things yourself and take the legal action as a last resort

Good , you don't want to divorce your husband , so better take help from the Women cell of your area in India softly to resolve the matter in dispute with the family members and with your husband. The official of CWC will try to settle the matter and to remove the confusion arises. If not solved then you will have to approach the court to file the cases with the help of lawyer.

If the marriage was solemnized in India then you can file a petition for restitution of conjugal rights. Then you would know whether your husband wants to continue this marriage or not. Better consult a lawyer soon and discuss all details.

Hello. Sorry to hear that you are not being treated well in your matrimonial home. See any type of harassment by the husband or any of his family members is punishable in India. It depends upon how stern action you want to take against them. As regards your situation is concerned, if you want to go against your sister-in-law, you can file complaint under DV Act etc. And if you want to take a legal action so as to be with your husband, an application for Restitution of Conjugal Rights may filed under Hindu Marriage Act. But on a serious note, i would not recommend you to resort to any sort of legal channel. Matrimonial ties are very delicate, a decision in haste might be regretful.
