Kuala Lumpur: A Malaysian woman is suing her husband for almost a million dollars for loss of her virginity to him.

The 30-year-old teacher has claimed $9,41,000 in damages from her husband for causing her to lose her virginity to him on a false promise, according to a report published in The New Strait Times.

She also wants the court to declare their marriage null and void.

In her suit, the woman has claimed that she met her husband in 2006 while she was still in university and after dating for a few months, he asked her to share bed with him at a local hotel, which she did.

Though their marriage was registered "not long after, but they never went through the Chinese customary marriage rites due to objections from her parents-in-law who deemed her a misfit", she has said in the suit.

"What she has is a marriage on paper only. It's not the kind we all know and the kind all women want. It's a marriage obtained by misrepresentation," her lawyer, Ernest Chua, was quoted by the newspaper as saying.
