Man takes half the house in divorce… literally
October 3rd, 2008 at 12:39 pm by Clive Bellmore in DivorceSome guys take things very literally, especially when there’s a divorce under debate. A Cambodian man decided that his country’s law stating that couples get exactly half of their assets during a divorce was to be taken literally, and proceeded to cut his house in half down the middle.
‘Meuon Rima’ took a saw to the matrimonial home he shared with his wife Nhang and cut the building in half, before hooking it up to his car and driving off with it. Meuon sought a divorce from his wife after she’d refused to play nurse for him when he was ill recently (presumably a serious case of man-flu).
Interestingly enough he didn’t take the same measures when it came to dividing the children, who he left with his ex-wife.
It may have seemed like an extreme solution to the problem, but Cambodia has a very expensive court system which is renowned for its corruption, so he just looking to save some money on divorce lawyers.
