First of all Thanks to Bora and Shaikh Sir for their valuable information on this case. I have one more query as given below 1. My friend has only audio recording of their conversations for the adultery proof. All voice recordings clearly showing affair of his wife. Is audio recordings sufficient proof to prove adultery in court to get divorce in his case? Thanks!!!
In this case, wife has committed adultery.
Based on the evidences available; the husband can file for divorce in family court on the grounds of cruelty.
The person committing adultery with his wife can be punished by the husband based on the evidences on approaching criminal court.
Thanks.
Hello,
Getting a divorce is not a problem here, since strong grounds exists in case you file a petition for the same. The real problem is regarding any 498A, 406 IPC or Domestic Violence Act or 125 CrPC case which the wife might file against the husband and his family members.
In order to have some protection, the husband and family members can apply for an anticipatory bail if any FIR is registered against them. In the meantime, the husband must try to collect as much evidence as possible which suggests that the real problem between the parties is the wife having an affair, and not demand of dowry.
This evidence will not only help your friend in procuring bail but also in contesting the Trial.

You would be required to get the certificate from the authorities after getting the voice tested from a government approved authority, to prove its genuineness.
Thanks.
