Camera Ends Marriage

DAMMAM, 30 May 2004 — A cell phone with a camera was responsible for ending a marriage in Dammam, Al-Youm reported. The groom tried to make sure that no cameras were brought into the wedding hall; he hired women guards to search each guest before she entered the hall. One girl, however, managed to sneak a phone in and she took pictures of the bride and groom without either knowing. An old lady realized the girl was taking pictures and snatched the camera. When the groom learned about the incident, he was very angry and when he discovered that the girl taking the pictures was a relative of the bride, he decided not to go through with the wedding.
