Malaysian court rules in favor of mistress’ rights
A Malaysian appeals court declared in a landmark ruling that mistresses have rights and should not be treated as mere chattel, news reports said Friday. Goh, a 73-year old businessman, met Heng, 56, almost 40 years ago and bought her a house in southern Johor state in 1980. Goh later demanded the house back after the relationship soured in 1988. “You squeezed her like a lemon and later cast her aside like an old shoe,” the judge said to Goh after overturning the high court’s decision.
