A
Welsh 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 Sarge, 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.
Mr Alifi, told the
Juba Post newspaper that he heard a loud noise around midnight on 13
February and immediately rushed outside to find Mr Sarge with his
goat.
"When I asked him: 'What are you doing there?', he fell off the
back of the goat, so I captured and tied him up."
Mr Alifi then called elders to decide how to deal with the case.
"They said I should not take him to the police, but rather let
him pay a dowry for my goat because he used it as his wife," Mr
Alifi told the newspaper.
Mr Sarge refused to comment on the situation. The Goat was
more forthcoming and said she had never had such a caring and
sensitive lover.
