Restraining Order (Perintah Tegahan Gangguan)

A restraining order, or perintah tegahan gangguan, is a court direction that stops someone, usually the husband, from harassing, contacting or approaching the wife while a case is ongoing.

It often comes up alongside a fasakh claim based on cruelty, or whenever a wife feels unsafe during proceedings.

In real cases, the application is usually backed by evidence like a police report or threatening messages, so the court sees the actual need for the order.

The exact procedure can vary a little depending on which state court handles your case.
