What misconduct led ex-husband to lose asset share?

Question

Accepted Answer

Misconduct Leading to Reduced Asset Share

The ex-husband's share of matrimonial assets was reduced by 10 per cent by the Singapore High Court due to his repeated attempts to sabotage his ex-wife's welfare and their marriage. This financial penalty was imposed to signal the court's disapproval of his conduct.
Denial of Access to Daughter

The man repeatedly denied his ex-wife access to their daughter, who is now 12 years old. This breach of court-ordered access led to him being found in contempt of court.
Attempts to Force Ex-Wife's Departure

Furthermore, the ex-husband attempted to send his ex-wife back to India. He also petitioned the Housing & Development Board (HDB) to take over their matrimonial flat, even though she had been the one making payments for it.
Hindrance of Joint Ownership and Mortgage Contribution

The court also noted that the ex-husband refused to allow his ex-wife to co-own the flat or contribute officially to the mortgage. His actions were found to have effectively denied her any share in potential proceeds from an open-market sale of the property. The HDB eventually refunded her contributions, and she was evicted from the flat with police assistance.
