How to rectify giving 3 talaqs to disrespectful wife who filed police complaint for dowry demand?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
My wife is very modern she always fights with me and does not respect my mother, do not pray salah. One day there was huge fighting between us and I warned her to shut her mouth but she did not care. Then I have given all 3 talaqs. I explained her we are strangers to each other from now onwards and she must have to leave me but she didn’t agree and complaints her parents they are just like non Muslims they argued with me and registered a police complaint against me stating that I am demanding additional dowry. Finally we are together till now. At present I am in Saudi. Please suggest me what I have to do. Every time I am thinking that I am a big sinner who has ever lived on this earth. Please help me to come out from this gunah.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Since you have given three talaqs to your wife; hence she went out of your nikah and became a stranger for you. Now it is unlawful and haram for you to live together. Now Shariah halalah and then new nikah is necessary in order to live together.
قال الله تعالى: فَإِن طَلَّقَهَا فَلاَ تَحِلُّ لَهُ مِن بَعْدُ حَتَّىَ تَنكِحَ زَوْجاً غَيْرَهُ . الآية [البقرة : 230]
