Being caught in 'close proximity' in the middle of the night with a co-star last week has hastened the end of the marriage of popular Malaysian TV actor Norman Hakim.
His wife Abby Abadi Monday turned up with divorce papers - accompanied by 20 media persons - at a location where Hakim was shooting for a TV serial playing a local cop.
Media had chased Abadi from the the religious Syriah court where she had gone to file her divorce petition. She could not submit them because they were not complete, The Star said Tuesday.
The six-year marriage had been on the rocks as per media reports. The scandal of being caught with actress Memey Suhaiza, 20, has proved to be the last straw.
Media reports have speculated that Memey was the cause of marital problems of Norman, 33 and Abby, 29.
Norman started crying when his wife of six years handed him the documents and ushered her away to discuss the matter privately.
About 45 minutes later, they spoke to reporters.
Norman was detained early last Thursday by Selangor religious department officers at his office, charging him with khalwat (close proximity) with Memey.
This is a crime under the Islamic law.
When asked whether he would cooperate with Abby, Norman said he was willing to do so provided Memey was given a fair hearing.
This prompted an outburst from Abby, who accused him of not caring for her feelings.
Norman then tried to pacify her, saying that private matters should not be discussed in public, but this prompted another outburst from Abby.
She accused him of lying, effectively cutting short the press conference when Norman walked off muttering that he had nothing else to say about the issue.
He had earlier told reporters he needed time to think things over and hoped to salvage the marriage.
He added that he had not gone home since the incident to prevent quarrels between them as Abby would get riled up whenever he mentioned Memey's name and accuse him of defending her.
Norman became evasive when asked about the nature of his relationship with Memey, saying: 'I have to consider the feelings of others and Abby is still my wife.'
Rumours that their marriage was on the rocks started circulating a few months ago and local entertainment magazines had speculated that Memey was the cause.

yipeswe should all stay out of private affairs. But no the press is on it like a whore and Islamic law jumps on it too. We need to separate church and state. Let us all make our own religious decisions as we want. take religion off our identity cards. |

be strongNo matter how we treat our husbands, its not a reason to stray. We treat them good, they stray, we treat them bad, they still stray. They can’t control libido. Even if we are as gorgeous as angel, its still not enough for our husbands. Only very few men remain faithful and loyal to their wives. Be strong, pray hard Abby. God will be on the side of those who are true believers. |

| Sebagai seorang Muslim kita tidak boleh melempar sebarang tuduhan atau andaian yang tidak baik kpd sesaorng. Bagi mereka yang terlibat harus muasabahkan diri sendiri apabila Allah telah menetapkan sesuatu kpd mereka.Allah tidak zalim, yg zalim adalah manusia.Ini menunjukkan Allah masih sayang kpd mereka, agar mereka membetulkan kesilapan masing2 yang menyebabkan kejadian itu berlaku.Saya yakin pengajaran ini akan memperbaiki segala kelemahan dan kelalaian kita kpd Allah.Mohonlah keampunan dengan Tuhan diatas kesilapan dan kelemahan kita, sesungguhnya Allah itu maha pengampun. Manusia memang sentiasa melakukan kesalahan cuma jangan mengulangi kesilapan yg sama. InshaAllah saya doakan kebahagian rumah tangga beliau berkekalan. Kesabaran itu adalah sebahagian drp iman. |

no body is perfectBuat Norman dan Abby, anggaplah apa yang telah berlaku itu sebagai salah satu dari dugaan dari Allah buat anda berdua..Anda harus terima segala risiko yang datang.sama-samalah interfeksi diri..yang baik dijadikan tauladan dan yang burok dijadikan sempadan..Disebalik kejadian ini pasti ada hikmahnya..Allah maha adil,maha mengetahui dan maha pengampun dan penyayang..saya yakin, anda berdua masih boleh bermuafakat dan berbincang secara baik untuk menyelesaikan masaalah ini.kami sayangkan anda berdua dan harapan kami rumahtangga anda kembali bahagia...janganlah di sia-siakan masa depan anak-anak anda.Mereka belom tahu apa-apa..jangan jadikan mereka mangsa broken home.. |

Abby and NormanNorman : We don’t know what really happened that night between you & Memey Suhaiza. If its true that u were 'set up', file a police report or hire an attorney to cover you. But since your wife had insinuate that you are a real LYING D*&K, well then accept the consequences of divorce. And there is NO case of polygamy here. Norman has not decide on marrying memy because of 'that night' s incident.
Abby: Women in general be it muslim, christian, catholic, taosit, buddhist, hindu, etc can never tolerate cheating, whatmore polygamy. In this matter, Norman is still married to you but if you believe strongly that your husband is a cheating D*%K, then with proper evidences, file a divorce if living with this moron is too excruciating. Yes, it seems like a proviate matter which should not appear in blogs or news but whoever wrote that is also a real moron because both Abby & Norman are local Malaysian artistes. |
