Unlawful restraint charges can also be brought against them. These legitimate legal remedies can be pursued without harassing the wife and her family members.

Hello,

The husband has to take legal steps to safeguard his interests in protecting himself from possible criminal complaints that the wife's family may initiate including dowry harassment, marital cruelty u/s 498A and 406 IPC, maintenance claims etc.

The husband should therefore immediately send a legal notice to the wife demanding her to to join him back at the matrimonial home and resume her marriage.In the said notice he should mention that the wife was taken away forcibly and the family is responsible for her staying away.In case there is a demand for maintenance from the wife, this step will help preempt the same.
