Women in Saudi Arabia divorced by their husbands will now be sent a text message to inform them of their new status.
The move is designed to stop the practice of men ending marriages without telling their wives.
The message will include the divorce certificate number and the name of the relevant court where the women can pick up the documentation.
Women can also inquire about their marital status through a website and view details of any probate certificates.
Men can still divorce women at any time for any reason though and while the state is telling them, obviously the man isn't still responsible to tell them.
I'm sure in another couple years they'll fix that too by compelling the woman to be present at court.
My ex wife got the news the same way.
good to know, thanks
didn't know you were his ex wife tbh
When Oppression meets Bureaucracy.
Imagine being such a baby that you need the govt to help you with a break up like that.
