I am a British man. I was married last year to a Moroccan woman.
After the visa process she arrived in the UK earlier this year.
We were having some problems after she arrived. She asked to go to Morocco to visit her family. I allowed her to go. She took my mother's gold with her to Morocco.
The gold she took was given to her conditonally that she is my wife.
Whilst she was in Morocco our problem got worse. Then out of the blue she messaged me telling me, she was on the aeroplane and would like me to pick her up from the airport.
I was confused. I told her not to come. She had decided all this without even consulting me.
She said the aeroplane was already taxiing. I checked the airport website. The plane hadn't landed in Morocco yet. I told her I knew she was lying to me.
She still refused to get off the aeroplane.
On the aeroplane she apparently had some sort of seizure. The plane was diverted to France and she was sent to the hospital.
After getting in contact with her. I booked her a hotel in France.
She told me she had left my mothers gold in Morocco. I asked her why. She told me she left the country in a rush and forgot the gold.
She told me she was not allowed to travel by air for 7 days.
A few days pass and things got worse between us. She blamed me for all her life's pitfall, including her being in France.
I told her I don't want to be with her anymore. At this point she told me she was pregnant. I was taken back.
The doctor in the French hospital apparently told her she was pregnant. I asked her why she held back this information so long. This again was my fault that she didn't tell me.
I told her to get a test in the morning. She did. She told me it was positive. I asked her to send me a picture of the test. She refused. After a few hours she sent me a picture. One of the lines looked blurry.
I agreed to get her a ticket back to the UK. Now she was fit to travel again.... Even though it had only been 3 days
I had an uneasy feeling about this. As I was thinking about this. She messaged me. She told me the first thing she wants to do is take a pregnancy test when she arrives in the UK.
I got her a ticket back to Morocco instead.
I had no contact with her except for some of her family members after she refused to get on the aeroplane.
They told me she is pregnant.
A few days later I had a phone call. It was my wife. She was staying in a hotel in the UK. She told me she just arrived. She wanted me to see her.
Naively I went to see her.
She told me her family planned on selling my mother's gold. She had been getting advice from a morrocan woman that knows how to manipulate the system in the UK to ensure she can stay here and not have to return to Morocco. All this was because her family told her to do this. She told me she is pregnant and to stay with her. She told me she will self harm if I didn't stay.
I stayed that night.
I bought her some pregnancy test kits. She told she can't take them now. But will later.
A few hours later she messaged me. She told me the pregnancy test was negative.
I felt a fool. I felt stupid. I have been used. I have been robbed.
She begged me to come back again. Needless to say I didn't.
A few days later I had a call from the hospital. She had been admitted into hospital on mental health issues. They asked me to come. I refused.
A few days later. The police got in touch with me. I was arrested and questioned.
I was arrested on completely false accusations. Some of the accusations are too disgusting for me to even talk about. Judging by the way i was questioned, the police know the accusations are false but need to follow procedures.
One of the questions I was asked was a forced marriage accusation.
My wife claims her brother and her mother forced her to marry me. She claims her brother is threatening to un alive her if she returns to Morocco.
I think all of these accusations are simply for her to be allowed to remain in the UK on humanitarian grounds.
I have contacted her family. They are all very happy that they have my mother's gold. They are very happy that my wife has made these lies about me to stay in the UK.
I would like some help and advice.
Is there any way of me recovering my mother's gold? Could I contact the police in Morocco or do I need to contact the police in the UK?
Can the statement my wife made against her brother and her mother apply in Morocco?
Since forced marriages and threatening to un alive someone are illegal in Morocco.
First, let me say I’m sorry for what you are going through.
Second, I’m an American so I’m not familiar with UK laws but in America we would be stuck. They know that if they say you abused them they get to stay here and you may be responsible for them. That’s why it’s always a risk and some people won’t do it at all.
ye gods
Call the losses an act of gross stupidity and forget them, then get a divorce .
I will be the first sensible thing you've done for a while
@Jav1234
You have been a victim of this shit my bro! It’s so hard to find honest people and unfortunately men and women are alike from this country or the neighbouring ones. But do one thing just write a detailed email to Home Office fraud department and withdraw your sponsorship as a matter of an urgency and give them all the proofs.
@muzzichuzzi
Thank you for your response. She is claiming her brother will un alive her if she returns to Morocco. So she is trying to stay on humanitarian grounds.
Will the home office still send her back to Morocco?
@Jav1234
Most of these people are scam artists and that's what you did to you.
She wanted
To leave morocco , so she convinced you that she That she loved you and married you.
I had somebody do this to me too.But he was a man and i'm the woman... I'm from the.
US so US people get scammed even more.
Turn HER in to the UK embassy in morocco... But also Turner in immigration in the UK and take away her Visa.
This happens all the time... Chris charges on them in morocco Go to the police.
They have to help you take all your Text Emails whatever you have.
There's also a tourist Agency that helps Fraud to foreigners.
There's lots that you can do embarrass this Peace Of sht that she is..
Press charges
on her family for stealing your mother's gold
Don't let this go. She played you so put her in jail.
I will pray for you, Good luck
@Lysa Drew That's not necessarily true... They need proof and most Moroccan's lie.
I have a friend in Morocco.That just crossed from morocco to mexico and is going to lie and say he's gay and he can't go back to his country because of his religion.. He's saying his family will not accept him anymore.Which is not a liar's family loves him.
He said
He will lie to get into the USA
@Jav1234
She's lying.Do everything possible to get her out of your life and your country... I just left a message to somebody telling them that I have a friend That I considered a friend in morocco and he's in mexico now... He went to.
Brazil and crossed to Mexico so he can get into the US..
I asked them How are you gonna do that Because you're not fleeting from your country because of war... He said there's a way like lying and saying he's gay.
Moroccans are good in lying so get around your life and press charges on her... I left you a message On the process. I spent seven months in morocco with A moroccan man and he played me for.
But I did meet nice people and one of them is helping me press Charges on him.
Get her visa taking away as soon as possible. Don't let her scare you with her lies.Because you have more power In your own country, not her
@Jav1234
19 is the police's number.
Seek legal help and/or advice in both Morocco and UK. Theft is a *major* criminal offense. I'm extremely sorry to hear this. Please take care of your mental health and well being as your safety comes in first. Being an American who lived in Morocco more than 20 years I can confidentially attest that a *lot* of people are interested in gaining a foreign citizenship/going to a foreign country *no matter the cost*.
Wishing you all the best brother
@Srg4mm so basically you proved my point. People lie once they get here so they can stay and they know abuse is one of them. The lady who used to do my facials told me she came to America for a husband and said he was abusive to get out of the marriage and to stay in the country.
Anyone, Check the USA Embassy page for Morocco. It’ll tell you all you need to know.
When I was in Morocco and someone stole my phone in Casablanca the police were very helpful to help me retrieve it and I saw them interograting everyone and going from business to business for cameras. Some are helpful and some are not.
Did you have the gold appraised? Do you have pictures of it or some documentation of ownership? you’ll need it.
@Jav1234 do you have residency in Morocco? Like a Moroccan ID card attached to an address in Morocco?
You should hire an attorney in Morocco... Preferably one that speaks English and is well aware of the tactics and manipulation by people like the ones you mentioned in your post.
You should have scoped out her family and her in great details post marriage for at least 1 to 3 years within Morocco meaning YOU remain in Morocco with residency.....
Anyways now you need a Moroccan attorney to handle affairs... Send me a pm
Also be careful for 'sehir' aka 'magic' .... It may just be better for you to part ways with the gold if the girl and her family are of the type that resort to magic when they become aware that their efforts will not be as effective to serve their objective anymore.... Ie loosing the UK visa... I assume you are Muslim so trust in Allah
Hello!
I’m in a group on FB that deal with stuff like this and there are people from your country who were able to get retribution. I can’t tell you the group because it’s for women only dealing with Moroccan men but one of the members said she went to the local MP and they handled everything.
I’m thinking since you are from the UK you will know who that is. Good luck.
