Hello Sir,
I married my 1st wife in 2003 and lived with her for 7 years till 2010. she is very abusive, and she has been under the influence of sleeping pills and was under psychiatric treatment. Their parents hid the fact that she had psychiatric issues and never told me about it. At times she used to be very violent physically as well. Unable to bear this situation I moved out of the house to save my life. There are no children out of 1st marriage. At this stage I met a girl and married her in 2011 without divorcing my 1st wife. My 2nd wife knows about my 1st marriage and that I am not divorced. My 1st wife is not aware of my 2nd marriage. After several years, my 1st wife is now asking for a mutual divorce to settle her life elsewhere.

It's been 15 years of my marriage with my 2nd wife. Now there is a conflict in my 2nd marriage and my 2nd wife wants divorce now. There are 2 kids out of my 2nd marriage. In what circumstances can I be free from legal consequences? Should I divorce my 1st wife first or 2nd wife first? Please advise the best approach where I can be free from legal consequences due to this bigamy. post divorcing my 1st wife, will she still have the chance to challenge if she ever comes to know about my 2nd marriage in future?
I have married a 2nd time totally unaware of the legal implications. I was young and took incorrect decisions in my life without any legal knowledge. Had I known about it, I wouldn't have married 2nd time without legally divorcing my 1st wife. I am in a very distressed state of mind due to these conflicts. Kindly advise.
