The EgyptAir's ex-wife has revealed that there is no love story in their marriage. She branded him a jobless drug addict and claimed their five years marriage was a 'living hell'
Seif Eldin Mustafa on Tuesday forced a passenger jet to redirect to Cyprus after he wore a fake suicide vest and threatened to blow himself up.
In her first interview, Marina has revealed that he was a violent unemployed bully who was cruel to her and their four children.
She added 'the world has been painted a picture of a man who hijacked a plane for love' but says it could not be further from the truth.
'Most of the media painted a picture of a romantic situation in which a man was trying to reach out to his estranged wife,' she told Cypriot newspaper Phileleftheros.
'But that couldn't be further from the truth and they would have a different opinion if they knew what he was really like.
'It was a marriage of hell with threats, beatings, torture and fear. He was a man who knew how to inflict fear and to create misery around him. He was unbalanced and a scary person.'
Marina, 51, met Mustafa in 1983, when she was 18 years old, and married him two years later.
During their seven years together the couple had three daughters and a son, but Ms Paraschou still describes them as the 'darkest chapter in my life'.
She says the couple lived with her parents on Cyprus during their marriage, but unemployed Mustafa never provided financially to the family.
The couple divorced in 1990 and Mustafa left Cyprus for Egypt in 1994 where he was jailed for forgery and fraud.
He broke out of prison in 2011 amid the chaos during the uprising against Egyptian president Muhammad Hosni El Sayed Mubarak.
