Nop i did not pay any settlement amount in order to get my passport back because during interrogation i lodged a complaint against cops about asking money and therefore i was released without any problems............sir thank you for your reply. I am not asking for divorce right now because i have not ignored my wife at all. I am willing to keep her with me but they are the ones playing this fake game. She doesn't want to stay with me but she wants money from me. I have consulted indian lawyers and according to them the only way she qualifies for maintenance is when i have neglected her but in this case i have not neglected her. Since i mentioned earlier indian laws are women biased and cops also get greedy when they see american dollars so if i fly india to prove my innocence they will make sure that my passport gets impounded for several months and that is the only reason i want to prove my innocence from U.S. because i feel much safer here and our law is well organised. Just think of it why would cops arrest me without any investigation and they will release me conditionally demanding bride that is because all of them want money. All of them know that my weak point is my passport and once i get stuck over there i will loose my job for sure. In case if there is inquiry from indian embassy or U.S. embassy what necessary steps i should take from U.S. itself to prove that i have not neglected my wife ! Is there any specific case i should file in civil court to protect myself !
