Question: I cannot accept that the other party had an affair and ruined our marriage, what else can I do?
Divorce
Answer: If you have solid proof of adultery, you can include the third party as a Co-Respondent in the unilateral divorce petition and claim damages for the breakdown of the marriage. The amount of compensation depends on the situation, there have been cases where the compensation amount reached RM50,000* or even higher. *[2009] 4 MLJ 409; "The 2nd respondent had to therefore pay the petitioner RM50,000 in damages to be held in trust by the petitioner for the children until they reached the age of 18 years."
