The answer

If a judge rules for divorce due to harm inflicted upon the wife, the divorce is valid even if the husband does not pronounce it. It is not a condition for the divorce to occur that the wife be present; rather, it suffices for the husband to pronounce it verbally, or write it explicitly, or deputize someone else to divorce her.
