No ‘Talak’ for Manohara, long battle to come
Written by Ali Cordoba, World Futures
A long battle legal battle may be on the way in the Manohara Pinot versus Kelantan Palace affair that may end into the forced dissolution of the marriage between the popular Indonesian beauty and the secretive Prince Fakhry.
The Palace has made it clear that there will be no easy way out for Manohara and expect this affair to create tension in Jakarta.
Prince Fakhry's personal friend and acting Palace spokesperson businessman Mohd Soberi Safii said to the Indonesian press on Monday that it is improbable for the prince to grant Manohara divorce.
He said Manohara was free to ask for divorce from the Prince but if that was to happen, Manohara should not think of coming back to the Prince who loved her very much. Meanwhile, Manohara said in Indonesia that she will be filing for a divorce and did not mention anything about seeking the husband's forgiveness in order for him to take her back as suggested by Soberi.
In yet another twist in the affair that has gripped Indonesia for the past 3 months and has started to be see light in the local press in Malaysia, the Palace in Kelantan seems ready for a long and tough battle to make life impossible for Manohara, said commentators in Jakarta.
"I will give all guarantees if Deasy Fajarina (Manohara's Mother) and Manohara want to make a police report in Malaysia on the alleged abuses. Please come forward and do it. We guarantee nothing will happen. We too, we want justice in this," he said, while launching the dare to report in Malaysia challenge.
