A newly married man
have filed for divorce just a week after his wedding, complaining that his new
bride refused his sex during their honeymoon.
The

in Dubai, A man has filed for divorce just a week into his honeymoon after
complaining that his wife refused to have sex with him.
The couple from an
Arab country had flown to Europe to celebrate after being married in Dubai, but
cut-short their honeymoon in Europe, fly back to Dubai and head to court for
divorce.
According to reports
from Gulf News, the man and his countrywoman had been engaged for some time
before tying the knot.
Having not been
allowed to touch her or sleep with her during the week-long honeymoon, the
husband approached Dubai Sharia Court seeking divorce upon their return to the
country.
“The couple did not
sleep together during what was a planned and hoped-for honeymoon," a
source close to the case told Gulf News.
"The wife didn’t
allow her husband to have consensual sex with her," the source said.
"She even accused
him of being tight-fisted and stingy in terms of spending money on her.
Meanwhile, the husband accuses his wife of being lavish and one who spends
money extravagantly and unnecessarily.”
Once their plane
landed, the couple walked out of Dubai International Airport only for the wife
to head back to her family’s house, said the source.
Meanwhile, the husband
decided to take legal action and lodged a divorce claim before the Dubai Courts
that referred the case to a marriage counsellor of the Family Guidance and
Reconciliation Section.
The section officials
summoned the couple for several counselling sessions, but when every
litigant refused to have the disagreement resolved amicably, the case was
referred to the Sharia Court, the source said.
"The husband is
expected to present his submissions to the Sharia judge and the wife as well. A
hearing will be held soon,” the source added.
