Earlier, Hafsat told the court that she wanted a divorce due to suffering and lack of feeding.
She however applied for the custody of the children as well as school fees and maintenance allowance from the respondent.
Before the judgment, the respondent had told the court that he does not want a divorce and that he could only release the third and fourth children.
Bashir said he would hold on to the first born who is in secondary school, because he would not want the child’s education to be hindered in any way.
He also said that they both (father and mother) agreed that the second born should remain with his relation as he had been there for long before their misunderstanding. (NAN)
