Kapanlagi.com - Paula Verhoeven's legal team revealed that during her marriage to Baim Wong, their client had no access to the family's finances. This was stated while accompanying Paula to report to the National Commission on Violence Against Women, Wednesday (30/4/2025).

According to the legal team, this is one form of economic violence that Paula experienced during her marriage. They mentioned that this situation directly affected Paula's position and independence within the household.

"Yes, economic violence is like not being given access to manage household finances by the husband," said Siti Aminah, one of Paula's legal team members.

1. Paula Does Not Know Baim's Income

This statement is also related to Paula's role as a wife who should have equal rights and status, both socially and economically. However, according to the legal counsel, this does not happen in their marriage.

"Yes, Ms. Paula does not know how much her husband earns, does not know the expenses, and is not given the space to make economic decisions for the family," continued Siti.

2. The Existence of One-Sided Dominance

Furthermore, the legal counsel stated that even though Paula also works in the entertainment industry, the management of her income is not entirely in her hands. This reinforces the existence of one-sided dominance from Baim Wong in the financial aspects of the household.

"Yes, even the income from Ms. Paula's work also goes into an account that is not under her own name," revealed Alvon Kurnia Palma.

3. The Existence of Economic Control and Restraint

Paula's legal counsel stated that these conditions further weaken their client's position, especially in facing the divorce process. They deem it important to bring these facts to the public.

"Yes, so that the public knows that domestic violence does not always have to be physically visible, but can also take the form of economic control and restraint," emphasized Alvon.

4. It Has Been Happening for Years

The legal team also mentioned that this condition has been ongoing for years and has only now been revealed because Paula feels it is time to speak out. They hope that the National Commission on Violence Against Women can provide protection and legal reinforcement regarding this report.

"Yes, she does not want other women to experience the same thing, especially having to remain silent just because of shame or fear," said Ainul Yaqin.
