Reverse Dowry Paid by Hubby-Stealing Woman

JEDDAH, 15 March 2007 — A schoolteacher here heard a colleague brag about her husband so much that she decided to utilize the fact he was in debt to bribe him into dumping his wife and marrying her, the daily Al-Madinah reported yesterday. The woman offered her colleague’s husband SR200,000 to divorce his wife and marry her, an offer he couldn’t refuse considering his SR150,000 debt. The man divorced his wife and married the teacher, paid off his debts and still had SR50,000 leftover from this reverse dowry arrangement.
