'Fabulous' wedding for inmate at Saudi prison

A Saudi prison staged a "fabulous" wedding for an inmate inside jail and the lucky groom was also gifted SR10,000 (Dh10,000) by a prince, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.

The wedding, which was held in the central prison in the Central town of Buraidah, was attended only by the couple’s relatives, including 19 women, 'Sabq' said.

“The prison management later gave dinner to all guests and presented the cheque to the groom at the end of the wedding. It also assigned a room for the couple's honeymoon” it said.
