Living happily as a bachelor, i have something which is troubling me for the past few years.
We are based in India and we are of orthodox hindus.
My sister (we will call her ABC), married the guy she loved...her life went on wonderful for nearly 5-6 years, and had 2 children.
My brother-in-law (lets call him XYZ), was sweet and loving husband, and they were happy.
XYZ, was in regular touch with a girl who is a relative of us. Later that became physical, eventhough that girl was in her teens. The relationship went on for some time, when ABC caught them "in action", and ABC made a scene and sent out this girl. From that day on their married life became like a ship in mid storm.
We brothers came to know of how intimate XYZ and the other girl was through their chats in HOT****L. XYZ, had left the username and password on his shelf and ABC found something fishy on that and gave us the details, which proved more sexual than a porno movie (that girl is still in her teens).
Then XYZ & ABC moved out of that town and settled in a city (the distance of that girl's location is around 26hrs by train). ABC was a bit happy on this and this happiness did not stay for long. He started making small small reasons to go back to that town, and meet this girl.
When ABC started questioning this, XYZ physically abused her by pulling her pubic hair, tieing her up, kicking her, slapping her.... (all this only after the children went to sleep) ABC did not tell much to us about XYZ's abuse. When it went out of control, she cameback to us with the kids like a wounded soldier, scars on her face and heart.
This all happend about 4 years earlier.
Presently, this XYZ's final settlement from defence services (on retirement) is being held, as ABC has asked the court to do so, and ABC has not given him a divorce till date, eventhough he started to plead. Once he gets a official divorce, he could verywell spoil another girl's life.
After you guys learning about all the story....my question is.
Should she now give him a divorce and take care of the kids, as i'm supporting her and she is self employed?
or should she keep fighting (wasting money and energy) against XYZ?.
For your info, i's single (43 yrs old) and presently supporting ABC and her kids. After separation, ABC was working in the automobile industry and presently is a working partner of a small establishment.
Sorry for the long question....anyway you need a preface for a sad story...
