Don’t use this to other women
KWAZULU
NATAL -court had to grant a binding protection order
against a warring couple whose marriage is on the brink of collapsing due to
infidelity and physical abuse. The matter was heard at the Civil Courts after
the wife applied for maintenance and also sought protection against her husband
whom she described as abusive.
However, the case took a new twist when Kennedy revealed
that his wife, Christine, had at one time pulled his private parts as apparent
punishment for adultery. Ms Anniah presided over the matter.
Kennedy told the court that Christine dragged his
private parts as a way of getting back at him since he had an adulterous affair
and sired a child out of wedlock.
“We always have arguments over the child that I
sired out of wedlock. On this particular day, we were in our bedroom when she
got hold of my private parts Your Worship. She tightened her grip as she pulled
them off (sic). However, I managed to loosen her grip and we started exchanging
blows,” he said.
Kennedy said their marriage was dry with no romance.
He said his wife was failing to forgive him over the child though he apologised
a long time back.
“Your Worship, she is also in the habit of verbally
assaulting and insulting me. It has become the order of the day and she also
denies me my conjugal rights,” he added.
In her application, Christine said her husband was
an abusive man who was also neglecting the welfare of their children even
though he was financially stable. She made a child and spousal monthly
maintenance application of R250.
Keneddy who is employed by the District Development
Fund (DDF) had offered R60 saying he was in the process of repaying a bank
loan. Ms Anaiah ordered him to pay R70 as well as pay all school fees and
clothing for his minor child.
