Under this divorce, a Muslim man can leave his wife simply by saying the word “talaq” three times.The certificate appears to bear the Kelantan state crest and was marked as the copy for the wife.According to the Sunday Times, Koh confirmed that the Sultan had indeed divorced Rihana Oksana Petra (also known as Oksana Voevodina) "by three talaqs in the presence of two competent Muslim witnesses".He also confirmed that the divorce was filed on June 22 in Singapore's Syariah Court, and finalised on July 1 with permission from Kelantan's Syariah Court.These claims contradict statements given by the former Miss Moscow winner to Malaysian news portal Malaysiakini (later carried by The Straits Times) that she was not in Singapore in June for any divorce proceedings, but instead in Russia with her baby."I have not been given any admonition of divorce," Malaysiakini quoted her as saying. "This is an act of provocation. We have never been divorced."Koh, however, claimed the former model was informed of the divorce through her lawyers, which he identified as Russian firm Alexander Dobrovinsky & Partners.She was also given a copy of the divorce certificate, he added.Lawyer: "No objective evidence" on father of the childAccording to a report by UK daily MailOnline, the Sultan allegedly had doubts that Rihana's two-month-old son, Ismail Leon Petra, was truly his heir.The baby was born earlier in May, 11 months after the couple married in an Islamic ceremony on June 7, a date Rihana referred to in an Instagram post as the "Birthday of our family".

According to a report by Russian international television network RT, the pair subsequently visited a fertility clinic in Germany, as the Sultan was “anxious to start a family”.The 50-year-old monarch's previous marriage to royal descendant Kangsadal Pipitpakdee in 2004 produced no children.Following the wedding, the Sultan – who was then Malaysia’s King – made history as the first-ever ruler to abdicate, with observers speculating that the move was linked to unhappiness over his marriage to Rihana.Koh told the Sunday Times that there was "no objective evidence, as yet, as to the biological father of the child", and asked that the former King's privacy "be respected".According to MailOnline's report, a close friend of Rihana's rubbished the Sultan's fatherhood doubts, saying that the father and son "share one face".While Rihana has posted multiple photos of the child to her Instagram page, none show his face, which is often hidden or angled away from the camera.

MailOnline reported that a source close to the Sultan claimed he had disinherited the baby and would not bestow royal titles on his former wife or child, but was willing to provide for them.The report also cited sources saying that Rihana had married the Sultan under the impression that she would be given the title of Queen, and her son would be the crown prince of Kelantan.The Kelantan Palace has never acknowledged their marriage, and issued a statement on July 16 that no one was to be called "Queen of Kelantan" without the title being officially conferred.It added that Sultan Muhammad V’s younger brother, Tengku Muhammad Faiz Petra, was the rightful crown prince.Observers believe that the statement was targeted at an Instagram post Rihana wrote on July 11, in which she referred to her son as the future crown prince of Kelantan.Many also noted the stark difference between the palace's treatment of Rihana and another foreign bride, Swedish national Sofie Louise Johansson, who wed the crown prince.Unlike Rihana, Sofie's marriage in April was officially announced, and she was given the title Yang Berbahagia Cik Puan, an honorific for nobility."I cannot hold back tears": RihanaIn her latest Instagram post dated July 22, Rihana said that she had faced "a lot of malice, slander, and envy".She did not mention the divorce rumours in particular, but said she was "proud" that her son was of Malaysian descent, adding that she was willing to do anything to "grow worthy of (Malaysians') love" for his sake.

"I am writing this post and I cannot hold back tears," she said, describing them as tears of happiness and gratitude for support received."I want to tell all the people from Malaysia: you have big hearts, because you accepted and supported me - a girl who was born in another country and grown in a different culture."
