From Saudi Arabia: http://tinyurl.com/7ueggd

The father married his daughter off to a 58-year old man for a dowry of $8,000.

The mother (divorced from the father) filed a divorce plea on her daughter’s behalf.

The Saudi courts have denied the request.

Oh … the daughter is 8 years old.

At least he put a verbal condition that the relationship not be consumated until she is 18. Always looking out for their daughters, aren’t they?
