A Moroccan man recently filed a lawsuit against his wife, accusing her of adultery.

After undergoing a routine health checkup, the man allegedly learned that he had been sterile for most of his life, so he couldn’t possibly have fathered any of their nine children.

The man, a professor in the small Moroccan city of Sidi Slimane, reportedly had his whole world turned upside down by an urologist, following a routine checkup.

He apparently had a small cyst on his right testicle, which he told the doctor had been there for as long as he could remember.

Terminate

The physician decided to run some tests, and while the results showed that the cyst was not life-threatening, they also showed that its presence rendered the unnamed man sterile.

The only problem was that he had been happily married to his wife for 35 years, and was supposed to have fathered 9 children during that time.

Moroccan newspaper Al-Massae reports that the man didn’t rush to file for marriage termination immediately after hearing the news from his urologist.

Disown

Instead he underwent a series of tests that ultimately confirmed he could not have fathered any children in the last 50 years.

Shocked by this revelation, the man contacted his lawyer and filed a lawsuit against his wife, accusing her of adultery and demanding both a divorce and the disownment of all of his nine children.

The man allegedly petitioned the President of the First Instance Court to appoint a team of medical specialists to confirm beyond the shadow of a doubt that he had indeed been sterile for over five decades, and couldn’t have fathered any of his children.
