Malaysian actor Fattah Amin has rubbished the cheating claims made by his ex-wife, actress Nur Fazura, following divorce proceedings today (Oct 7).
According to mStar, The Star’s Malay-language news portal, Fattah said the accusation caught him by surprise as it had never been brought up throughout their divorce process.
“That accusation is false. There’s no cheating issue. If she (Fazura) wants to continue defaming, she can bear the sins,” the 34-year-old told local media.
Fattah also refuted the claim that he had failed to provide alimony for Fazura, 41, and their four-year-old daughter Fatima.
“I have proof of where my money went. I gave it to my family. Maybe she feels like it wasn't enough for her,” he said.
Fattah added that Fazura’s accusations were intended to tarnish his reputation. He also stressed that their divorce was due to irreconcilable differences, nothing more.
“The accusations were made to humiliate and damage my good name. We already promised to protect each other’s dignity before (I pronounced) the talak,” he said.
Meanwhile, Fattah’s lawyer Zulkifli Che Yong said the court can issue a jail notice to Fazura for violating the agreed-upon terms.
“One of the agreed-upon terms is that both parties have to protect each other’s dignity and abstain from defaming one another. If there’s a violation, Fattah can file for contempt proceedings,” he said.
Fattah and Fazura divorced with a single talak at the Petaling Syariah Lower Court in Subang Bestari, Shah Alam today (Oct 7).
Following the proceedings, Fazura claimed her decision to divorce Fattah comes from his inability to provide alimony, his infidelity and irreconcilable differences.
Fazura filed for a divorce from Fattah on Sept 13. The former couple were married on Nov 27, 2017.
