Sullia, Sep 23: All preparations were done for a grand marriage creating an atmosphere of joy and celebration in the small village of Sannamoole near Jalsooru of Sullia Taluk in Dakshina Kannada district. However, at 11:30 a.m. instead of Nikah a fight took place on the stage wherein family members of the bride delivered deadly blows to the bridegroom.
The girl's family did not hesitate to borrow debt from relatives, friends and bank as œthe suitable bridegroom had demanded 80 grams of gold jewellery besides Rs 2 lakh in cash as dowry. The cash was handed over to him in advance.
On the wedding day, (Monday, September 22), a reception was arranged for around 400 people by the bride's family. They had expected at least a couple of hundred guests from bridegroom's side. When he came with only a few members the family members felt sad. Besides, he had not brought necessary documents from the concerned Masjid Jamath.
This unexpected development ahead of Nikah, prompted the family members of the girl to contact the management committee of the concerned Masjid. And to their shock, they got a news that Moidu Kunhi, son of Abdulla, had already married four times!
When the bride's family began to enquire the bridegroom, he initially declined to admit the fact. However, after receiving a few blows from the family members, the bridegroom began to speak the truth and admitted that it was his fifth marriage.
The wedding was immediately called off and Moidu Kunhi was taken hostage by the girl's family. He was released only after he promised to return the dowry and pay compensation.
