Boy marries puppy

A tribal priest in eastern India has married a five year old boy to a dog to keep evil spirits away from him and his family.

Bonjh Gope conducted the marriage of Samir Mudiya to a puppy on the concluding day of a three day tribal festival at Kuluptanaga in Jharkhand state.

The Press Trust of India reports that guests who came to see the "newly wed couple" danced to drum beats and were served home brewed beer and local delicacies.

The groom's father Shanbabu claimed that four such marriages had taken place this year.

It is reported he said he believed "such marriages would keep the boy, the family as well as society at large away from the evil eye."

A police spokesman said: "We have never heard of such a case. We will have to seek legal opinion before taking action."
