There are number of such cases but certainly Indian Courts and laws are enough competent to deal with such a situation and there are lot of remedies, you can avail for your redressal subject to some time constraints. Firstly, it is advised you to file maintenance petition for yourself and your daughter, lodging of FIR against your husband and in-laws family for atrocities made to you and seek share in matrimonial house.

Well, Answer to your question is indian laws may not be applicable in Spain, but they are applicable to your in-laws staying here in India and FIR can be lodged against your husband for instigating and abetting under indian criminal laws, you can certainly file complaint under Domestic Violence act against your husband and in laws in india and court will direct your father in law to pay maintenance and right to live in your in laws house.
