Bekijk volle/desktop versie : Unusual way of getting a divorce

Morocco’s Rajaa Houlla, 29, reacts after discovering that she had been divorced by her Saudi husband. She only learnt of the divorce only when police came to her house to deport her in Jeddah on Friday. The government has recently announced measures to ease marriage between Saudis and non-Saudis, but social customs backed by religious authorities still present obstacles to Saudis marrying foreigners. The Shoura (Consultative) Council has also recently formed a committee to study the issue of children born of non-Saudi wives and abandoned by their Saudi fathers.
