Bigamy complain

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 05 June 2022 This query is : Resolved
My 1st wife separated from me on 2010, in spite of repeated requests by letters she didn't return. In the meantime my mother was become seriously ill; after few months my mother was died. To take care of my mother I was forced to 2nd time marry a girl & thereby myself committed Bigamy for novel cause.

My 2nd wife file 125 CRPC against me & immediately after filing she married through marriage register & thereby she committed Bigamy & move to unknown address. She forcefully confine my child from and did not allow me to see my child.
I have failed to know her proper address.

I have visited local police station, stating above fact. They advised me to lodge a complaint of Bigamy against my second wife. Police station officer said that since my second wife's Bigamy is documented & I could get custody of my child very easily as she will be go to jail.
If I complain against my second wife, will she go to jail & I get custody of my child ?

Could I be any trouble if I lodge complain ?

My divorce case with 1st wife is in evidence stage.

Please advise.

You cannot complain against your 2nd wife as you did not take divorce through from your 1st wife. Hence your 2nd marriage also becomes bigamy.

The divorce case with 1st wife is not yet decreed by the court. Hence your 2nd marriage also becomes bigamy.

Both of you have committed an offence punishable u/s 494 IPC

Hello,

Yes, you both have committed the bigamy.

Prudence requires that bigamy issue be ignored. The custody issue could be got decided in the divorce proceedings.
