A man in Algeria wants $20,000 for psychological distress caused by seeing his new wife's face...
A man in Algeria is suing his wife for fraud after he woke up the day after their wedding and saw her without make-up.
Really? REALLY?!
The obviously incredibly handsome, charming and generally wonderful groom was so shocked at his new wife’s appearance he swore in a court of law that he thought she was 'a thief who came to steal his apartment'.
Quoting a court source, a local Algerian newspaper reported: 'He said he was deceived by her as she used to fill up her face with make up before their marriage.'
'He said she looked very beautiful and attractive before marriage, but when he woke up in the morning and found that she had washed the make-up off her face, he was frightened as he thought she was a thief.'
So, you want her to be very beautiful and attractive but if she uses make-up to achieve this that’s fraud? If this counts, we’ve got a few outstanding cases of our own relationship fraud we’d like settling:
