The opposite party had filed a private complaint - 498a and 420 against us - misguided by their advocate. We could make them understand that if A1 is arrested, we will not be granting them divorce no matter what.

They were probably counting on IrBM - but we made them understand that we will go all the way to SC if needed, if they choose to get greedy. We also made it clear that no payment will be paid in any case. We were really planning on doing that - and they could see our intent, so they decided to concede and we could get our MCD. Note that, we could only do this because IrBM is not passed, and once it is passed - they can file false 498a without fearing about their divorce getting stalled.

I successfully got my divorce under 13b of HMA.

P.S. My ex was living in with her boyfriend all along.
