The wife of suspended Auburn councillor Salim Mehajer has filed for an AVO against him.
Aysha Mehajer made the application under her maiden name Learmonth to officers from the Sydney City Local Area Command yesterday, police confirmed to The Sydney Morning Herald.
Her lawyers will appear in court tomorrow to plead her case against her husband.
Salim became infamous when he shut down a Sydney street for his wedding Aysha last August, leading to an investigation into his role at the council and his suspension as a councillor, as well as an investigation into corruption at the council which is still ongoing.
There have been reports their marriage is on the rocks for months, but Salim has used social media to repeatedly insist there was no trouble in paradise.
