"My Police Husband Locked Me In Cell For Six Days" - Woman

An Enugu State High Court on Monday gave Kyrian Ibe , a policeman , and his wife , Lilian , till May 28 to settle their marital differences.

Lilian had urged the court to dissolve their eight -year marriage for alleged maltreatment of the husband .

The petitioner also begged the court to award her custody of their four - year - old son held hostage by her husband.

She told the court that her husband, a policeman was maltreating her , adding that he locked her up in police custody for six days for no reason and took their son.

“ My son is in the custody of his brother, Philip , and he also locked me up in the police cell for six days without cause , ” he said .

Ibe , in his response , had told the court that his wife was not submissive .

He said his wife had been having extra - marital affairs , adding that this led to her arrest and detention by the police .

“ She left my house for another man ’ s house and I led some policemen and arrested her , ’’ he said .

The respondent said that he still loved his wife and was ready for reconciliation to ensure that his family got back to its original state .

The judge, Justice Afamefuna Nwobodo , asked Lilian if she was ready to let her matrimonial home go .

Lilian told the court that she did not want to leave her matrimonial home but wanted the court to save her from the husband’ s maltreatment .

Nwobodo urged the respondent ’ s younger brother and wife , Philip , to do their best and resolve the couple ’ s differences before the next sitting .

He adjourned the matters till May 28 for reports of the proposed settlement.
