Marriage and divorce 12 times in 43 years
An elderly couple living in Vienna came into the headlines when it was revealed that they had married each other 12 times in the last 43 years and then divorced each other after an interval of 3-3 years. You may also be wondering why this would have happened? Know the whole story first. The elderly woman’s husband died in the year 1981. After that she married another person. According to the neighbours, there is a lot of love between the couple and they have been living together in the same house for the last 43 years like an ideal couple. There was no disagreement between them. Then why did they divorce and remarry every two and a half to three years?
were defrauding the government
In fact, this couple was taking advantage of a loophole in Austrian law for 43 years. According to the policy here, if a woman remains alone after becoming a widow, then the government gives her an allowance of $28,300 i.e. Rs 24 lakh. In such a situation, every time a woman took a legal divorce, she got a government allowance. This matter came to light when the woman went to the Pension Insurance Institute after the 12th divorce in May 2022. When the investigation was done, it was found that she was marrying the same man and getting divorce to get allowance. Now a case of fraud has been filed against the couple. Since their 12th divorce was not finalized, both of them will be tried jointly.
