India, May 15 -- A Bengaluru-based software engineer turned into a sleuth to expose his wife's secret second marriage, an effort that eventually helped him win a four-year-long divorce battle in a Mangaluru family court.

According to a report by Times of India, the court not only granted him a divorce but also dismissed his wife's demand for permanent alimony and ordered her to pay Rs.30,000 as litigation costs.

The man became suspicious after noticing unexplained financial transactions between his wife, and her former boyfriend. Though she claimed the relationship had ended before their marriage in December 2018, he alleged it continued in secret.
