“Our marriage of four years was an utter chaos. In addition to a continuous physical and psychological violence during this period, I had to endure infidelity, blackmail and degradation at my husband’s hands. After careful consideration, I have reached a sad conclusion that I cannot spend my whole life in this horrific manner,” wrote Syeda Aliza. “The welfare and wellbeing of my children have played a significant role in this decision. I do not want them to grow up in a toxic, unhealthy and violent household.”
Sultan also emphasized on the life lessons that she would much rather teach her children. “No kid should ever have to grow up feeling violence to be a normal part of relationships. I would rather teach them that no wounds are too deep to be healed, no scars too shameful to be concealed at the cost of one’s safety.

Feroze Khan, on the other hand, stated that he has filed for custody and visitation rights regarding his children. “I’m afraid I am not in a position to further discuss this matter as the case is still pending before the court,” wrote the Habs actor.
