A. Any sort of black mailing is illegal. If he is blackmailing right now then after marriage the things may get worst. Such persons have mental imbalance & may cause a harm to u also. If u feel things are out of control , then approach the nearest police station. Try to be away from him for few months, the concept of out of sight & out of mind may help u.

A. Dear Client,
You can file a case under section 498a of IPC
Section 498a of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, also deals with the offence of domestic violence that provides for the punishment i.e. an imprisonment of three years or fine or both. Thus, an FIR for an offence under section 498a can be registered in the local police station of your area against the husband/his relative.
You can further consult a lawyer who has professional experience in dealing with the cases of domestic violence.

A. Dear Client,

Yes you need to file a separate case for domestic violence, as the previous suit dealt with divorce. The court can pass an order in the absence of your in-laws or husband. If it is in your favor you will receive the appropriate remedy.

A. If you do not wish to stay with your husband you may ask him to divorce you by mutual consent and if he doesn't agree than you have option to file a contested divorce but please note that will invite the further legal battle of custody of your child which will not be healthy for your child at such a tender age.
Another option you have is to file a maintenance petition against your husband under section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code,1973 and claim maintenance for yourself and your child.
