Hello, I'm seeking an advice as I'm in a sticky situation. I'm a foreigner divorcing with an indonesian wife married under islam nikah resmi with buku nikah.
First of all my wife threaten me that she will report me to the police and can fine me or put me in jail because I wasn't paying her every month. However I was always paying rent, food etc. and everything for her. But under islam law I'm suppose to be sending her money every month.. not sure how it will go in the court but I will rather put her in jail first then risk getting there especially as a foreigner and the chances are the judge will be on local side rather than a foreigner side.
I have evidence and can file a report against her due to adultery. I'm still thinking if this is the best choice but I don't want to be waiting whether she is going to report me first, especially since I always cared for her but indonesian law can be unfair..
The second thing is that she wants to take all of the property that we have together and also we have a debt/loan together that she refuses to pay (it was made in other country). I'm also not sure how that will work as she has all the documents and certificates and I don't have any
Maybe someone here was through a similar situation or know a really good lawyer please let me know.
