Possibility of being charged by police if there is no proof of marriage

Hi,

I am married but don’t have a certificate to show it. I was reported for a bounced cheque and when police asked me for my statement, they asked if I’m married and I answered yes.

I have a 2-year-old son who was born outside the country. Will I be charged with sex out of wedlock?

Thank you

Do you have witnesses who can state that you are married?

Hopefully, Police will not file any other case, maybe they asked a general question.

If you are married anywhere in the world that is a valid marriage therefore if any issue comes, you can bring your marriage certificate wherever it was done and it will a valid document.

You may contact me for further discussion.
