A teenager married a DOG during a
lavish Indian wedding in front of at least 70 guests.
Unhappy Mangli Munda, 18, from a
remote part of eastern India, was told by village elders that marrying the
confused canine would ward off an evil spell.
A local guru told her parents the
teenager possessed ill-luck and that marrying a man would bring destruction to
the family and her community.
The baffled dog, Sheru, was brought to
the wedding in a chauffeur driven car and welcomed by revellers. Mangli, who
has not been to school, said she was not happy to wed a dog, but insisted that
she it will help change her fortunes.
The hesitant bride said: "I am
marrying a dog because the village elders believe that my evil spell will be
passed on to the dog. "After that is done, the man I will marry will have
a long life."
Mangli's father Sri Amnmunda agreed
and even found a stray dog named Sheru as a match for his daughter. He said:
"The village elders told us that we should organise the wedding as soon as
we can. We had to make sure that the evil spell is destroyed. "And
marrying a dog is the only way to get rid of the bad luck."
