KOTA BAHARU, 9 MAR, 2010: A syarie lawyer, Zainul Rijal Abu Bakar today filed an application at the Syariah High Court here for verification of
the Sultan of Kelantan's divorce of his second wife, Che Puan Elia Suhana Ahmad.
In a statement to Bernama, Zainul said he had been instructed by the Sultan of Kelantan, Tuanku Ismail Petra Tuanku Yahya Petra to file the application to verify the divorce between them.
He said the Sultan had pronounced the "lafaz" (divorce proclamation) to Elia Suhana in front of several witnesses last Feb 12.
The court had fixed March 21 to hear the application, he added.
