| Italy: Bigamist immigrant's wife reports husband over rival spouse |
| 2011-09-21 |
| (AKI) - The second wife of a longterm Mohammedan immigrant in Italia has reported her husband to police after authorities allowed his first wife to join the household in the northern city of Treviso from Senegal ... a nation of about 14 million on the west coast of Africa bordering Mauretania to the north, Mali to the east, and a pair of Guineas to the south, one of them Bissau. It is 90 percent Mohammedan and has more than 80 political parties. Its primary purpose seems to be absorbing refugees... The 45-year-old immigrant's second wife, who has twin daughters of eight with him reportedly cannot countenance living with him, his second wife and their two sons of 15 and 16 with his first wife. The man, who has lived in Italia for over a decade, runs little risk of prosecution for bigamy, however. Under Italian law, bigamist long-term immigrants are allowed to bring more than one wife to live with them in their adoptive country provided they are 'integrated'. |
