This is a classic example of domestic violence. Your sister has the option to file a case of domestic violence in the court of law in order to stop this cruelty by husband and in-laws. Remember that cruelty can be physical, mental or even financial in nature. By filing the case of domestic violence, she can seek protective custody, residence order (if she wishes to leave her matrimonial house), monetary reliefs, compensation orders and even can claim maintenance for her in the same petition. For more insights, you may contact me. Good luck!
This is a clear case of Domestic violence where police complaint can be filed against the accused and his family members for harassing your sister u/s 498A IPC. Also, one can file Domestic violence and seek several remedies under this Act like accommodation,etc and maintenance before a Civil Judge.
