Dowry Dowry

6 years ago

It's been 1 n half years to my marriage and my parents in law had demanded for dowry 10 laks out of which we have given 5 lacs.. They have harassed me and abused very badly over phone and with this pressure even husband starting beating me up listening to their parents. I have filed a dowry case against them and now they are denying they have taken dowry and they never demanded for money.. Before 1 week of marriage we had transferred 60000 Rs to my husband's account and handed him 40000 Rs and the rest 4 lacs were given to his dad when nobody was there. How should I prove that they have taken dowry.?

I have already mentioned in the complaint that we have given 5 lac. And they demanded for it and insulted us in phone like anything.. And they warned us if they don't give some amount before marriage they would cancel the marriage.. So we have given it..

FIR is lodged after the counselling session at alternate dispute resolution centre.. But I'm not sure when they will start the investigation. I'm sorry sir I can't take the name of police station as it is social network.

With the dowry harassment, I'm devastated by knowing that my husband has a child with his ex girlfriend before our marriage. (after reading my husband's mail and his phone Is full of hers and her baby's pics ) we have separated since 2 n half months. I left my government job to live à life with him. But he has cheated me. Can I get maintenance and compensation? (as I'm a master degree graduate will the court consider me for compensation)?
