Forced to leave matrimont house by husband and in laws

I was thrown out of my matrimony house by husband and in laws with in 1 month of marriage due to dowry. I lodged a written complaint in police station but that police officer who was incharge of my complaint harrased me a lot and was taking my husbands support.. She didn't take any complaint and asked me to go for mutual consent divorce. It's been 5 years we are staying seperately. And he has filed divorce case in court after 1 yr of marriage the case is going on. Due to anger I sent my husband and in laws abusive messages. Wanted to know certain things:

1. Is sending abusive messages to husband and in laws is cognizable or non cognizable offence? 

2. What is the time limit to lodge 498a after seperation? 

3. If the time has barrred to lodge police complaint now.. Can i move to court for filing section 156 (3)? 

Please let me know.

Sending offensive messages amounts to cruelty, a ground for divorce.

Unlimited.

Consult and engage a local prudent lawyer to form proper opinion, advise and proceed as required under the circumstances.
