2 years ago

We are Muslims-in laws in kerala , I am from tamilnadu. In laws took all my wedding jewelry by promising to give it back soon. But it's been 6 years now. Now they are just giving excuses and inturn threatening me to keep quiet and verbally abusing. They are also not answering call or messages (we live in different states). Also they threw us(their son, me and our kid) out of their house and not responding to any form of communication. Can I give a complaint online, as it's not easy to travel to different states as of now. What is the first step I need to do?
