Dear Querist,
Dowry is property or valuable security, given or agreed to be given, in connection with marriage. It would be your burden to prove that the said amount had a strong nexus with the marriage or in other words it was consideration for marriage - in layman terms - your H was like I won't marry unless you pay up.
This is something that would be really difficult to prove since quite some time has elapsed and may come across as nothing but a gratituous loan.

Your story is unbelievable and impossible to prove. There are lot of hurdles to prove direct nexus of his friend with your husband and moreover, question mark shall raise over you.
Better forget this aspect and concenterate on other direct allegations, if you have any.
