@ Karthik,

You have stated, inter alia, that, "I married women who was allready married..." is it your personal or hypothetical case ?

Further you said, that, "....but she had not taken divorce from him..." what is her / their religion i.e., Hindu, Muslim, christian or any other ..??

You have stated, that, "....and We had registered marriage in USA." you did not mention about registeration of marriage was runder which provisions of personal law ??

Be clear and specific in your statement before posting your query but not such hypothetical and fake story.

1. Typically Old Husband can file Criminal case of Cheating, Fraud, Breach of Trust on Wife.

2. IF you show that you were not aware of Wife's earlier marriage, THEN no Criminal or Civil Case is possible on you.

Without divorce second marriage is an offence under section 494 of ipc. ... You can not remarry without obtaining the decree of divorce  2. Live in relationship also will be traeted as an act of adultery punishable with jail term, should your wife/s first husband lodges complaint against you in this regard
