Bahraini ‘kicked out 74-year-old wife to marry young Asian woman’

Manama : A Bahraini man in his seventies kicked out his 74-year-old wife after he got married to an Asian woman in her mid-thirties, the court heard. The woman had to resort to the Court of Urgent Matters in bid to return to the house and judges ruled in her favour, according to her lawyer Manar Al Tamimi.

“The Court of Urgent Matters issued an order with immediate effect to allow the woman return to her house because she has a valid marriage contract with him, although he expelled her from the house after his marriage with an Asian woman.

“My client spent her money on building and furnishing this house and it’s unacceptable for her to be kicked out, especially considering her age,” Al Tamimi said.
