Woman files divorce against 2 husbands at one go to end messy marriages

Bharti Achrekar (35, name changed) is trying hard to get a fresh start in Australia after being twice unlucky in marriage.

She was conned into dancing in a Dubai bar after she parted ways with her first husband.

Her second husband, who appeared to be a knight in shining armour, rescued her from the bar only to push her into working in porn films.

Bharti filed two divorce petitions at one go in the Bandra family court in September 2008.

She moved to Australia recently after her first divorce came through. She expects to be divorced from her second husband soon.

First marriage

Bharti wed Raghu Achrekar (name changed) according to Hindu rites, but separated after two years. She has one son from the marriage.

To fund her trichology course in Australia, Bharti signed a contract with a dance troupe in Dubai, which, however, turned out to be a trap to force girls into bar dancing.

Second marriage

She tried to flee Dubai in 2006 and accepted her second husband Rafiq's (name changed) marriage proposal while on a trip to Mumbai.

He assured her that she would not have to work in the bar any more. He further promised to fund her studies.

A few months later, they were married underu00a0 Muslim law, where Rafiq convinced Bharti to change her name to Shaheen.u00a0

Bharti subsequently left her son with her mother in Mahim and went to Dubai with Rafiq, where she realised that he was already married.

He had allegedly married her so he could force her to act in porn videos. Within a year, she fled to Mumbai.

Two months later, Rafiq allegedly began blackmailing Bharti's family and threatened to expose her sex videos. In 2008, Bharti filed a declaratory suit to nullify her marriages.

Rafiq's lawyer Vahida Parkar has claimed in the petition that Shaheen, who had not divorced her first husband while marrying Rafiq, has duped many men into marrying her and funding her studies. Shaheen's lawyer refused to comment. Bharti's sister said, "We are scared, asu00a0 her second husband had threatened us earlier."u00a0
