It would be illegal if he will get married with other woman despite already being married to your sister. They cannot let your brother in law get married without giving divorce to your sister. Just make this sure that your sister would not get convinced by her husband to divorce him by mutual agreement.

I have perused the contents of your query and would advise you to seek a detailed consultancy from a lawyer having expertise in matrimonial cases. There are certain legal remedies which your sister can avail. Filing a complaint under domestic violence act, filing a maintenance petition and a complaint with the NCW and DCW.
