Egypt bans 92-year-old's marriage
Quote:
The Egyptian authorities have banned a 92-year-old man from marrying a 17-year-old girl, the Egyptian al-Akhbar newspaper has reported.
The ministry of justice invoked a law which says the age gap between spouses should not exceed 25 years.
Egypt brought in the law prohibiting the marriage of elderly men to very young girls during the Gulf oil boom.

This seems a bit weird, a girl wanting to marry someone that is 75 years older than her!!! old enough to be her granddad or maybe even great granddad
