Wife gang-raped, husband SMSes ‘talaaq, talaaq, talaaq’

New Delhi: A woman who was gang-raped by her neighbours, forced to go through her worst fate when she informed her husband, who lives in Dubai, about her assault. He sent her an SMS for ‘talaq’.

According to a report published in Zeenews.com, the 25-year-old woman said that her Dubai-based husband, a construction worker, sent her ‘talaq’ three times through SMS after she confided in him what had happened.

Under the Sharia Law, a man can divorce his wife if he says ‘talaq’ to her three times.

After the SMSes from her husband, the woman was thrown out of the house where she lived with her mother-in-law and her four-year-old son, who was taken into custody by his family.

The woman said that she ‘went numb’ when she received the message. They were married for five-years, the MailOnline reported.

“When I read the message I went numb. I couldn’t believe what I had read. Just three words; talaq, talaq, talaq,” the report quoted her as saying.
