on the above mentioned query the legal opinion from my part is that please file immediately FIR against the so called in laws under Section 498 a that is called dowry prohibition act . after the filing of FIR when the investigation is in progress then the so called in laws contact your parents for settlement .

Dear Client,

You can simply lodge an FIR stating the averments that you have stated now. The police will take an appropriate action for the same and then the opposite party will come up for a compromise.
However you can file an alternate civil recovery suit for recovery of the aforementioned amount.
