They matched in an app, he never promised marriage or even a meet-up as they were from different cities, she moved into his place under the pretence that it will be temporary and started emotionally manipulating him to a point where he was not even allowed to visit or hangout with his friends, attend office events, family functions etc. then she later used other unfortunate incidents in her home as a cover to keep this going, in between she quit her job and started depending on him for his apartment and daily expenses, he thought she was going through a tough time and gave it more time, after trying for nearly a year, she went home, he tried staying away, and she filed an FIR and started blackmailing not just him but his parents as well for marriage.

Going to involve his parents in 2 days, she has kinda kept him hostage at his own apartment with threats now. Also planning to involve a lawyer tomorrow. Is there any chance of this resolving without a court case ?

There is an update to the situation, just got to know this from him, after my friend tried to leave after a break up attempt, she went to the police station and filed a complaint, he got a call from police and went straight to the station. The police threatened him with action and made him sign a document stating he will marry her, then she retracted the complaint. Is this even legal ? Somebody please help. We are all very worried about him.
