Q: An NRI man claimed that he was divorced and approached me and I'm a divorcee too. When he came down I came to know that he did not get his divorce when I questioned him. He forced for sex, infact raped, video taped it and threatened that would kill my son if i dont agree. Later I had to agree and then he married me and always threatened. Meanwhile during this time I also came to know that he had affairs with many women and cheated a few too. Currently he has affair with his colleague in his office. His sister and brother in law too initially lied that he was a divorcee and later whenever I went to their house they harrased me both physically and abused me badly. I don't have any support or anyone to save me. I'm scared that he would release the video which he took without my knowledge when he had sex with me and kill my son. He ran away to Dubai. I need justice. How can I get justice. He is in Dubai and works for Art Marine LLC. He lived with me in Dubai for 2 months and threatened me not to tell out.

Q: Hello lawyer! I need an expert advice from you. I was married 3 years back and my husband and inlaws cheated me on his medical condition (i.e. he had both kidneys removed and transplanted his mother kidney). A year after my marriage, I was pressured and tortured for not having a baby. I was very worried, and hence, got all my tests done and alhamdulillah everything was normal. The doctor also checked my husband and as a result, his reports were negative and the reason for that was associated with his transplant and medicines. He and his family behaviour is getting worse day by day, and hence, I am planning to get a divorce from him and wanted to know my legal rights and process to go further. I am living with my parents since 9 months and my husband hasn't supported me in any way. Now, he has started defaming me on social media also. I would be very thankful if you can help me in this regard.

Q: My ex-boyfriend and I broke up last Feb 2016 and now he is back, stalking me at my workplace and sending me threat messages. I am afraid to file a complaint with the police as it might just land me into trouble since he is an ex-boyfriend. Please advice. Thank you.

Q: I am reaching out to file a defamation case against my sister-in-law who lives in Sharjah but she is a citizen of India. She has declared on Facebook and social media that my relationship with her brother (my husband) is annulled. I am married to her brother and our marriage is still valid. I have faced humiliation and shame due to her posting of irresponsible comments. Please let me know the course of litigation and costs involved. I am not in the UAE but I would need a legal representation there. Please advise!
