Divorce in the UAE?

Sorry if I'm posting this on the wrong board.

Without going into too much details I have a friend who lives in Dubai and was married to her long time partner over there under British Law a few years back (They are both British).
The Husband is now playing away from home and won't move out of the home.
She wants a divorce but is unsure how to proceed. Advice please.

    It won't help me answer, but it may help others.

    Where are they now living?

    If they were married under British law then surely they can get divorced under British law. I used Divorce-on-Line and they were very helpful. Your friend could phone them to ask for advice.
