Indian man uses fake wife to get a divorce: lawyers

KOLKATA, India -- An Indian man who took an impersonator to court to get a divorce faces legal action after his real wife found out, lawyers said on Friday. Sanjib Saha presented a woman as his wife in a lower court in the eastern city of Kolkata this month. Both said they sought a mutual divorce, something the court granted immediately.

Saha’s real wife was then asked to leave the marital home. She has since appealed the ruling at a higher court, charged her husband with cheating and the original divorce was suspended.

“The case exposed the legal loopholes in our system,” Kaushik Chanda, lawyer of Saha’s real wife, said.
