Fir can be filed anywhere, but since the entire scene of events and cause of action arises in Delhi, ideally FIR should be filed in Delhi.
1.) Location of FIR: I reside in Kota, and my husband is secretly meeting a woman in Delhi. If i catch them red handed in a hotel of delhi, can I immediately file an FIR in delhi or I need to file a FIR in Kota? 2.) Police Assistance: I need to catch my husband red handed at hotel with another woman. Can I give a written complain to a police station in Delhi and request if they can send some policeman with me to catch my husband red handed from Hotel? 3.) Confiscate Bedsheet and Pillow cover for DNA Testing: Can we request police to confiscate bedsheet/ pillow cover from hotel to prove sexual intercourse. 4.) Case Transfer to Kota: if FIR is lodged in Delhi, can we pursue the case in Kota where I am residing later on.

hello
the FIR should be lodged in Delhi as the crime happened in Delhi. yes, you can file an FIR and later on on the basis of the investigation a divorce case can also be filed citing the ground of adultery. the case would be investigated by the Delhi police. the FIR cannot be transferred as the offence was committed there. the case in the court would go to trial in delhi.

2.Yes, you can lodge complaint first and then take the police along to catch them red handed.
3.Yes, police can seize those articles to prove adultery.

Dear Client,
If husband is meeting a prostitute than only he can be prosecuted as husband having external affair/physical - no offense under IPC. And FIR will file where act committed/incident happened.
Police will assist you only if you file complain that husband is hiring prostitute,not ordinary women.
Intercourse ? When there is no complain of Rape , why police will seize bed sheet/pillow etc to prove intercourse.
No, trail will proceed in Delhi only.
First and foremost, as per law, you will not be able to file a complaint for adultery against your husband. Only the other woman's husband can, if married.
However, you may use this extra marital affair as grounds for divorce, if you have evidence to prove it.
1.)which section or case law says that wife can't prosecute her husband for adultery?? Section 497 of IPC does not clear this issue...pls clarify 2.) If not adultery, can i lodge a case of cheating on my husband under IPC? 3.) if i catch my husband red handed in a hotel room with another married woman, what action can I take apart from divorce???

if the woman is not married then the woman cannot be prosecuted and the husband also cannot be proceeded against. if the woman is married, apart from divorce you can inform the husband of that married woman about the offence and he can proceed against your husband as he has committed an act of adultery.

2) you cannot prosecute your husband for adultery
3) you can file for divorce on grounds of mental cruelty and adultery

3. No criminal action by you can be taken.
1. Section 497 IPC does not confer upon the wife any right to prosecute the husband for adultery. The section primarily implies that a man cannot have intercourse with the wife of another man, and in essence gives right to the husband to complaint against the man who had intercourse with his wife.
2. Cheating under IPC is related to property and will not be applicable here.
3. If the woman is married, then take her husband along and ensures he files a complaint for adultery against your husband. Apart from that, you may file a complaint under Section 498A IPC. It may be interpreted that such infidelity amounts to cruelty.

1.)which section or case law says that wife can't prosecute her husband for adultery?? Section 497 of IPC does not clear this issue...pls clarify
Unfortunately the wife cannot prosecute her husband for the offences of adultery.
There is no provision in law for that.
2.) If not adultery, can i lodge a case of cheating on my husband under IPC?
Extra marital affairs will not be treated as a cheating offence.
3.) if i catch my husband red handed in a hotel room with another married woman, what action can I take apart from divorce???
Divorce is the only option before you.
Sec 497 talks about married women engaged in external affair and person with whom she has committed adultery can be charged at the instance of husband.
Cheating is valid allegation but complain have to demonstrate in such manner that ingredients of cheating make out.
inform her Husband than he can file complain of adultery.
