Dubai: An Egyptian woman committed suicide after her husband threatened to share her nude pictures and sexual videos online if she did not waive her rights in money and furniture in case of a possible divorce.
According to media reports, the 36-year-old husband filmed his wife while having intimate relations and threatened to share her nude pictures and videos online if she did not sign trust receipts, in return for waiving her legal rights to the money and furniture if they get divorced.
