An Indonesian family had to stop their daughter’s wedding after it was discovered that the groom was a woman.
But luckily, an ex-boyfriend stepped in to marry the bride, the China Daily reports.
Family and guests gathered to read the Koran at the Islamic ceremony in Java, but the groom did not bring relatives and suspicions were raised when ‘Rio’ failed to show documents.
“The suspicion became bigger as her heavy voice suddenly changed into a female one,” the paper quoted local police chief, as saying.
He added that the groom had a male physique and had known the bride for the last seven months.
“The family finally got Kiman, to marry Nuraini to save face in front of their guests,” the police chief said.
