Indian Man Divorces Wife Impersonator

CAN you be divorced from someone you aren’t married to?

An Indian man who took an impersonator to court to get a divorce faces legal action after his real wife found out, lawyers said on Friday.

Sanjib Saha presented a woman as his wife in a lower court in the eastern city of Kolkata this month. Both said they sought a mutual divorce.

The court consented to it.

Saha’s real wife was then asked to leave the marital home. She has since appealed the ruling at a higher court, charged her husband with cheating and the original divorce was suspended.

“The case exposed the legal loopholes in our system,” Kaushik Chanda, lawyer of Saha’s real wife, said.

Impersonators. Tsk!
