Other than 498a there is one law which is now days heavily being misused and that is 420 in matrimonial issues.In situations when engagements breaks or the boyfriend breaks relationship also this law is being misused against the men.
As its a case of cheating which can be anything saying that the husband was cheating with his salary or family status or even when husband and wife relationship get sour the wife can file cheating saying that he cheated her into marriage as he was not interested in having kids or a family.There are multiple things on which a wife can file false cheating case.
Now my question is if a husband and wife living separate then is it possible for her to file any kind of cheating case and what is the time frame for filing any cheating case after the fraid has been noticed?
