I am a British man. I was married last year to a Moroccan woman.
After the visa process she arrived in the UK earlier this year.
We were having some problems after she arrived. She asked to go to Morocco to visit her family. I allowed her to go. She took my mother's gold with her to Morocco.
The gold she took was given to her conditonally that she is my wife.
Whilst she was in Morocco our problem got worse. Then out of the blue she messaged me telling me, she was on the aeroplane and would like me to pick her up from the airport.
I was confused. I told her not to come. She had decided all this without even consulting me.
She said the aeroplane was already taxiing. I checked the airport website. The plane hadn't landed in Morocco yet. I told her I knew she was lying to me.
She still refused to get off the aeroplane.
On the aeroplane she apparently had some sort of seizure. The plane was diverted to France and she was sent to the hospital.
After getting in contact with her. I booked her a hotel in France.
She told me she had left my mothers gold in Morocco. I asked her why. She told me she left the country in a rush and forgot the gold.
She told me she was not allowed to travel by air for 7 days.
A few days pass and things got worse between us. She blamed me for all her life's pitfall, including her being in France.
I told her I don't want to be with her anymore. At this point she told me she was pregnant. I was taken back.
The doctor in the French hospital apparently told her she was pregnant. I asked her why she held back this information so long. This again was my fault that she didn't tell me.
I told her to get a test in the morning. She did. She told me it was positive. I asked her to send me a picture of the test. She refused. After a few hours she sent me a picture. One of the lines looked blurry.
I agreed to get her a ticket back to the UK. Now she was fit to travel again.... Even though it had only been 3 days
I had an uneasy feeling about this. As I was thinking about this. She messaged me. She told me the first thing she wants to do is take a pregnancy test when she arrives in the UK.
I got her a ticket back to Morocco instead.
I had no contact with her except for some of her family members after she refused to get on the aeroplane.
They told me she is pregnant.
A few days later I had a phone call. It was my wife. She was staying in a hotel in the UK. She told me she just arrived. She wanted me to see her.
Naively I went to see her.
She told me her family planned on selling my mother's gold. She had been getting advice from a morrocan woman that knows how to manipulate the system in the UK to ensure she can stay here and not have to return to Morocco. All this was because her family told her to do this. She told me she is pregnant and to stay with her. She told me she will self harm if I didn't stay.
I stayed that night.
I bought her some pregnancy test kits. She told she can't take them now. But will later.
A few hours later she messaged me. She told me the pregnancy test was negative.
I felt a fool. I felt stupid. I have been used. I have been robbed.
She begged me to come back again. Needless to say I didn't.
A few days later I had a call from the hospital. She had been admitted into hospital on mental health issues. They asked me to come. I refused.
A few days later. The police got in touch with me. I was arrested and questioned.
I was arrested on completely false accusations. Some of the accusations are too disgusting for me to even talk about. Judging by the way i was questioned, the police know the accusations are false but need to follow procedures.
One of the questions I was asked was a forced marriage accusation.
My wife claims her brother and her mother forced her to marry me. She claims her brother is threatening to un alive her if she returns to Morocco.
I think all of these accusations are simply for her to be allowed to remain in the UK on humanitarian grounds.
I have contacted her family. They are all very happy that they have my mother's gold. They are very happy that my wife has made these lies about me to stay in the UK.
I would like some help and advice.
Is there any way of me recovering my mother's gold? Could I contact the police in Morocco or do I need to contact the police in the UK?
Can the statement my wife made against her brother and her mother apply in Morocco?
Since forced marriages and threatening to un alive someone are illegal in Morocco.
