> Woman leaves husband and kids after eating cake
A married woman reportedly began behaving strangely after eating a slice of birthday cake given to her from an ex-boyfriend. It seems that Suzana, 27, ignored her responsibilities as a wife and mother, and went “crazy” (angau) for her ex-boyfriend after eating the cake, the daily said. She was reported to have cheated on her husband and resumed the relationship with her ex, spurning her 32-year-old husband’s advances of intimacy. Suzana’s relationship with her single ex-boyfriend started with conversations via Whatsapp and the two were spotted exiting a hotel after the cake incident by a friend of the husband. Her change in behaviour had caused friction within the household and Suzana reportedly asked for a divorce. However, the husband, Rizal, has brought Suzana to an Islamic medicine practitioner to help resolve the issue.
