There is no need for your brother to escape. The wrong has been committed by the girl. File a police complaint u/s 497 of adultery and at the same time file an annulment petition to get the marriage declared as null and void. The only thing to keep in mind is that you need to have proof that she is already married. For more detail u may contact me at--

which state in India you belong to? however the marriage of your brother is void ab initio for two reasons firstly he was not of marriageable age at the time of marriage.

secondly the second marriage during subsistence is void ask your brother to seek a decree of nullity from the court concerned to avoid any legal hassles.
