Saudi Arabia: Wife seeks divorce for non-payment of traffic fines
Riyadh: A citizen in Saudi Arabia got into trouble when he found out that he had not paid 29,000 riyals in traffic fines.
As a result of this uncommitted sin, the said citizen is facing great complications in renewing the legal documents of his foreign wife.
According to Saudi media, a Saudi citizen was revealed to have more than 50 traffic violations in his record worth 29,000 riyals.
The man had gone to the relevant government agency to renew his foreign wife’s documents, where he was told that the renewal was not possible due to traffic fines.
The citizen told the media that in 2013 he was associated with a private company which had provided him with a vehicle for transportation.
