F The parties’ positions on the key allegation
It is the father’s position that he told the mother that he wanted a divorce in September 2024 and that they had numerous conversations about it. He says she asked him to wait until December 2024 to initiate the process so that she could “figure matters out” and return to Morocco where all of her family lived. She told him that he would be ready to divorce by December 2024. He also says that she was aware that he initiated the proceedings on 26 December 2024 and her intention was to live in Morocco.
The mother says that she has been stranded in Morocco. She does not and did not wish to remain in Morocco. She was shocked to receive the divorce petition. She had no intention of returning to Morocco to live. She had asked the father to assist with obtaining a new travel visa and had undertaken an English test to facilitate the visa process. The father retained her travel documents and abandoned her in Morocco.
