Indian groom too drunk to wed, so brother steps in
Mon Apr 30, 2007 7:57AM BST
PATNA, India (Reuters) - Villagers at a wedding in eastern India
decided the groom had arrived too drunk to get married, and so the
bride married the groom's more sober brother instead, police said on
Monday.
"The groom was drunk and had reportedly misbehaved with guests when
the bride's family and local villagers chased him away," Madho Singh,
a senior police officer told Reuters after Sunday's marriage in a
village in Bihar state's Arwal district.
The younger brother readily agreed to take the groom's place beside
the teenage bride at her family's invitation, witnesses said.
"The groom apologised for his behaviour, but has been crying that word
will spread and he will never get a bride again," Singh said by phone.
