A. Dear Client,

You have the option to lodge a complaint with the police to prevent a third party from interfering in your peaceful married life. Additionally, you can file a permanent injunction suit against the third party, seeking an order to prohibit them from interfering with your family affairs, without necessarily claiming divorce for yourself. This legal action can help protect your marital rights and maintain the peace and harmony in your family life.

If you feel you can manage yourself outside without the support of others for all your needs, nothing prevents or restricts you from walking out of your ...ReadMore
