The Shariat Court in Bahrain has approved a woman’s request to grant her a divorce from her 35-year-old wedlock with her alcoholic husband.
Court files say the woman’s husband was a habitual drunkard and had wilfully neglected, abused and refused to maintain her and their children. A complaint filed said that the woman struggles to continue her life with her husband.
The husband denied attacking the plaintiff, but several witnesses testified in her favour, while investigations also confirmed the woman’s claims.
