how do you prove an adult person who happens to be married with a daughter (also married) and son (university student) who's husband is sitting MNA and she her self is a billionaire is dependant on her father?? I mean how in the world would you prove that?
Brother...
1 - An adult/ married person can be "financially" dependent on his/ her parents, if he/ she is not on spousal support even if the person has children and are in university.
2 - Everyone, including the court knows that she is a multi millionaire, however, in order to avoid income and wealth tax, she showed herself dependent in nomination papers of her father (or her father showed her dependent on him).
3 - To prove her point, she said in interview that she (and her brothers) don't have any properties and she lives in her father's home.
4 - Her husband didn't show her as his dependent as well.
Above will prove her as dependent on her father. Although I agree that there is no exact definition of dependent in law, but court will look into circumstantial evidence such as:
1 - Her interview
2 - Her tax details in the past
3 - Her husband income and tax details
4 - Her income (as shown in the tax returns) and her spending. For example, she went on many trips abroad and her husband doesn't earn much and she also doesn't earn that amount so who paid for her trips? Either her father or a prince from Middle East.
If she is proved as dependent (50-50 chance) and also the beneficial owner (very likely), her father will be automatically blamed:
1 - That he bought those expensive properties for her, and he will have to answer
2 - Why did he hide her property details
I tried to explain in very simple way, but if you have any questions, please post here. This is a good learning experience for all of us..
And please start thinking rationally. Apart from whether she is a dependent or not, do you think Mariam and her brother could have bought such expensive properties without the help of their father? If you answer is no (which all of us also believe), then how much tax the father paid on the income that could buy those properties?
When you will think with open mind, you will not care about proving anything in court.. You will just start hating the whole family..
