Divorce and abuse Divorce and abuse

1 year ago

I am female age 33 years. I got married on 19 Feb 2022. Within one Month of my marriage my partner went angry on silly things and verbally abused me and my parents. I also found him chatting and flirting with other girl in WhatsApp and I warned him not to repeat it again. I got pregnant in May 2022. In June 2022 during a family party I again found him being touchy with other girl so I said him to behave properly to which he again verbally abused me my family and even beat me in front of my mother during this time I was two months pregnant. My mother wanted to bring me back to home but he threatened us and asked me to return with him. Thinking about my family image and my baby in the womb I gave him one more chance and return back with him. In the next month July 2022 I found him sexting with many other girls in Instagram and using dirty bad words for me. I wanted to leave him and return to my parents but once again thinking my family image and my baby I again gave him one more chance.
Even after giving him one more chance on various instances i found him again lying to me hiding things from me and flirting with other girls. During Diwali for a silly thing we again had a fight he again abuse me and my family and I couldn't tolerate that so I also said bad words to him and he became physical with me. He pushed me and i fell down, in this time I was 7 months pregnant by god's grace me and nd my baby was safe.

There has been many more other instances where he abused me my parents and went physical with me. He also threatened me. Now on 1 january 2023 I delivered a baby boy through c section surgery. After I came From hospital and following some 7 more days he again went angry on a silly thing and again abused me my family. When I tried to stop him to say all those dirty things he tried to harm me physically. I called my parents he even disrespect them in front of my laws.

I would also like to inform that he also abuses verbally and physically his parents and his sister. This has been happening even before our marriage and his parents didn't tell me and my family about this behaviour of their son. This all abuse has happened to such an extent and in such frequencies that this is known to their neighbours and known in locality also.

Presently I have filed a complaint in local police mentioning that he verbally and physically abuses me and my family also he has a bad character and he threatens me as such I don't feel safe to live with him and don't find this environment safe to live in for my child even as such I want to separate from him and divorce him.

I am a working govt employee and financially stable. I can raise my kid alone. I want to divorce him and want my child custody with me. Kindly assist me with the legal guidance and help the Indian law can provide me in this regard .
