Infidality

(Querist) 13 March 2015 This query is : Resolved 
A businessman 55, is allegedly having an affair with his 35 year old gym instructor. The brother of the wife, follows the businessman and catches them in the garden. The wife of the businessman complains to police and he is summoned in the police station, where he begs for forgiveness from his wife and wife forgoes filing of FIR.
My question is:

1. Having an affair outside of marriage, is a civil matter or criminal matter?
2. Does Police have right to interfere in this matter and entertain an FIR?
3. Is it an offence to sit in the garden, with a lady, other than your wife?

Your comments will be highly appreciated.

I am a law student.

Mam,

Its just an adulterous relation and wife can seek the divorce on that ground .... What are the contents of the complaint which she has filed earlier?

Is the other lady married ? Because if that is so then the businessman can be prosecuted for bigamy by others lady husband in IPC .....
