#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....

#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.
