Man beaten to death by 4 wives
2010-12-23
A middle-aged man was beaten to death allegedly by his four wives at village Kabirpur under sadar upazila of the district early Tuesday. The deceased was identified as Yunus Bapari, 46, an auto-rickshaw driver and resident of Mulalidaha under sadar upazila.

The police said that at about 11:00pm Monday, Yunus went to a village fair at Brahmankanda near Faridpur town with his two wives where he ran into his third wife that triggered a family row as his first two wives did not know he had a third wife.
Hell hath no fury, times 3.
At one point the three women came to know that Yunus even had a fourth wife living in another village.
Make that times 4.
The three women then took him to the residence of his fourth wife at Kabirpur where the four women together beat him up mercilessly, locals said.
Ya think?
Yunus was admitted to Faridpur Medical College Hospital in a critical condition where he died at 4:50am. The body was sent to the hospital morgue for post-mortem examination. An unnatural death case was filed with Kotwali police station.
Unnatural, but not unexpected.

#5  Illustrating once again that polygamy is it's own punishment.

#3  The very best one of these ever was an Italian man, whose open casket memorial was held on the second floor of a funeral home.

The turnout was impressive, and everything was going well until the funeral home director, who was reading his eulogy, asked his wife if she would say a few words.

A dozen women stood up. It rapidly turned into a fist fight, with the casket and occupant being pushed out the window, followed by the funeral director.

The brawl made it to the street, where it was later described as a riot by the police, several of whom were injured, before they were able to get control of the situation.

Which did not last, because somebody stole the coffin on the street, leaving the deceased lying there, the funeral director demanding payment from *someone*, and all the wives claiming his estate, but renouncing his debts.

Sporadic fist fights resulted for months thereafter.

#2  I surprised the guy died. Sounds like he was a glutton for punishment...

#1  If this case goes to the sharia law court, the wives should get off - but just barely. The rules of evidence value testimony of a women to be only worth 1/4 that of a man's testimony. And since old Yunus isn't up to speaking up for himself, well....
