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.

Mr Alifi, Hai Malakal in Upper Nile State, told the Juba Post newspaper that he heard a loud noise around midnight on 13 February and immediately rushed outside to find Mr Tombe 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.

Old news.

Still funny

 

[Truronian]

Wow, this seems to be a goat heavy news day.

 

[Homie]

That was what I was thinking. Second goat story today.

But still is an old story. Read it on Off-Topic a while ago.

Well, at least he can have more than 1 wife i think. But have to ask the goat for permission...

Really pathetic..

 

[GenMarshall]

Talk about forced Bestiality!

 

[GinandTonic]

Such a fitting punishment for the crime

It sounds like the Sudanese tribal elders have a sense of humor.

What is with the goats today? Seriously, two threads like right in a row.

Once upon a time in Africa...
A black woman is pregnant, and she delivers her baby. Surprise! He's white!
Her husband (which is as black as I'm white) is very upset.
-"What! What did you do? I'm sure the father is the missionary, he's the only white man around!"
And he goes straight to the missionary's house, and explain his case.
The missionnary tries to calm him.
- "You know, the ways of God are very mysterious, and sometimes strange things, miracles, can happen. Look at the sheeps in the pen just there. They are all white, except one which is black!"
And the black man answer
"I understand. I will say nothing more about my white baby. But please, don't tell anything to my wife about the black sheep".

How do you know he raped it? Perhaps the goat was not a minor, and perhaps the goat agreed ?

 

[Bozo Erectus]

Well, on the bright side, at least all the guy has to do is say 'I divorce you' three times to the goat.

Indeed. *snigger snigger*

Steph: That's a good one too.

 

[Verbose]

Oh, you're all such cynics!

This, after all, is a happy, heartwarming story.

I'm sure this Man and his Goat will be perfectly happy together.

 

[Scuffer]

It just as well it wasn't a horse, it would be nothing but nag, nag, nag all day long
