OOPS!

The South China Morning Post reported that a 26-year-old man from Naringgul, Indonesia, was hoodwinked into marriage after dating his "wife," Kanza, 26, for a year.

Just 12 days into their union, the man, who goes by AK, became suspicious when his bride continued to wear her headscarf at home and avoided intimacy.

After doing a little sleuthing, AK discovered that Kanza was actually a man who had been cross-dressing since 2020.

The scoundrel later told authorities that he married AK to steal his family's assets.

He was arrested and could face four years in prison. [South China Morning Post, 5/27/2024]
