The answer

Polygyny is permissible if a man is capable of marriage and just between his wives, and no one is allowed to prevent it. If there is a law that prohibits it, then it is oppressive, and it is permissible to get rid of it in a way that causes no harm, including stealing private messages related to it from the wife. A Muslim should be keen to reside in Muslim countries.
