ABU DHABI — The apex court in Al Ain has allowed a woman to stay away from the stinking accommodation provided by her husband.
The Federal Supreme Court, upholding a ruling issued by an appeals court, also declared that bad smell is psychologically and physically harmful.
The woman had filed the lawsuit in Al Ain Shariah Court of First Instance against her husband seeking a ‘proper accommodation’, claiming the one provided by her husband was not fit to live in — being quite old and in dilapidated condition with horrible smells.
