A.Hi,
You can approach the police station and file a case of bigamy against the husband under Sec. 494 of IPC. You can also prefer to file a private complaint before the competent court against your husband if the police does not take the desired action. You can seek divorce alongwith maintenance and alimony from the husband.

A.See your brother in law has committed a crime for which he can be booked under the Sections 494 and 495 of Indian Penal Codes.
Under Section 494 of IPC- Marrying again during the lifetime of husband or wife - your sister can lodge a complaint against him and for which he will sent to jail for 7 years.

Under Section 49- of IPC -Same offence with concealment of former marriage from person with whom subsequent marriage is contracted - If the other lady lodges a complaint against him stating the fact that he lied to her about his earlier marriage then he will be sent to jail for 10 years.
