The divorce ruling between Baim Wong and Paula Verhoeven read by the panel of judges at the South Jakarta Religious Court still leaves some controversy. One important point highlighted is Paula's status as a nusyuz or disobedient wife, as stated in the ruling on April 16, 2025.
Fahmi Bachmid, as Baim Wong's legal representative, stated that this status arose based on the facts presented during the trial. According to him, Paula was proven to have violated her obligations as a wife during her marriage to Baim.
"Yes, that is the judge's consideration based on the trial facts that it is proven that the respondent is a disobedient wife," said Fahmi Bachmid when met in the Tendean area, South Jakarta, on Monday (29/4/2025).
