My husband that is a pastor raped me and I lost 2-month pregnancy after aborting two pregnancy for him~ wife to court

Firstclass newsline~My husband raped me and I lost a two-month old
pregnancy in the process. I want the dissolution of my two-year-old
marriage," a-38-year-old wife of a pastor told a Lagos Island
Customary Court in Lagos State.
The wife, Mary Iyayi, a make-up artiste, who lives at 49, Oke-Olu
Street, Iponri, a suburb of Lagos, also added: "My pastor-husband held
my hands to the wall, so I could not move. I told him that I was
pregnant but he did not listen, until he forcefully had sex with me.
"After the sex, I started bleeding and I lost the pregnancy. He told
me later that he had just helped me to flush out the pregnancy."
Mary said that she had three abortions for the pastor during their
courtship in order to save his ministry from crumbling.
"It was after we had been married that I knew that he married me
because of my money and not that he truly loves for me. He once told
me that he preferred a woman with big breasts which I do not have,"
she said.
Mary told the court that her husband was fond of beating her at any
slight provocation and that act had led her to have two miscarriages.
"While he was beating me, he also pushed me and I hit my stomach
against the wall, and I lost a pregnancy in the process," she said.
She also told the court that before she packed out of her matrimonial
home in June, last year, her husband had stopped sleeping in the same
room with her.
"Due to the three abortions and two miscarriages I suffered, I was
told at the hospital that my womb had been tampered with and that it
would take divine intervention for me to be pregnant again.
"Also, my husband threatened to kill me if I should leave him, saying
it is against the law of his church. He said that their church law
forbids its members from marrying another wife if the former wife is
still alive.
"I packed all my belongings from his house except my wedding gown
which he seized. I want the court to help me collect it from him and
dissolve the union.
"I am making this appeal because I am the only child of my parents and
I do not want to die prematurely and mysteriously," she said.
Mary also told the court that she bought almost all the items
including the two cell phones her husband was currently using.
While responding, the husband, Pastor Samuel Iyayi, 35, who lives at
the Assembly of God Church, Alpha Beach, Lekki, Lagos State, told the
court that he did not rape his wife.
"It is true we had sex and she lost some blood in the process, but I
did not rape her.
"She also left home in April 2014 for one and a-half months only to
return after some of our church members had begged on her behalf," he
added.
Iyayi, however, speaking on the wedding gown, said, "I had sold the
wedding gown when my father was sick and I could not raise money to
offset his hospital bills.
He said that he was still in love with his wife and was ready to have
her back if she was still in love with him.
President of the court, Chief Awos Awosola, ordered the man to produce
the wedding gown in court on June 1, the next adjourned date and told
the couple to maintain peace.
