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 the goat, and as far as we know they are still together," Mr Alifi said.

Nanny knows best
Thanks to Simon Titley for drawing this BBC story to my attention:
I guess the only real surprise from this story is that the press have not managed to prove that Mr Tombe is a candidate for leadership of the Liberal Democrats.
