Man forced to 'marry' goat
A Sudanese man has been forced to take a goat as his 'wife', after he was caught in a compromising position with the creature.
The goat's owner, Mr Alifi, said he surprised the man with his goat and took him to a council of elders.
They ordered the man, Mr Tombe, to pay a dowry of 15,000 Sudanese dinars (£25) to Mr Alifi.
"We have given him the goat, and as far as we know they are still together," Mr Alifi said.
Mr Alifi told a local newspaper that he heard a loud noise late at night and rushed outside to find Mr Tombe with his goat.
"When I asked him: 'What are you doing there?', he fell off the back of the goat, so I captured and tied him up."
Mr Alifi then called elders to decide how to deal with the case.
"They said I should not take him to the police, but rather let him pay a dowry for my goat because he used it as his wife," Mr Alifi added.

"I'm all for computer dating, but I would not like my sister to marry one!"

So you didn't see the bit on the BBC webpage that said the news story broke on "Friday, 24 February 2006, 16:40 GMT"

I don't know what to do now!


Maldax says have a word with the paper boy, now Civpilot tells me to watch the news.

As we all know there is only one Web page worth looking at and it ain't the BBC's!
