Sudan Man Forced To Marry Goat
A Sudanese man has been forced to take a goat as his wife after he was caught having sex with the animal.

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 ($50) to Mr. Alifi.

"We have given him to goat and as far as we know they are still together," said Mr. Alifi.
