A YOUNG Egyptian bride who was disenchanted with her new husband simply fled during her honeymoon and married another man at a nearby resort, the government daily al-Akhbar reported on Tuesday. Nefissa Abdel Hamid, a 26-year-old servant, left her 38-year-old truck driver husband 20 days after their wedding, and was married again, without having obtained a divorce, to a 29-year-old unemployed man in the holiday resort of Hurghada. The original husband alerted the police to the disappearance of his wife, and following an inquiry the police arrested the even-more newly-weds, who had been spotted several times at a hotel some 25km from the resort, it said. According to Islam, a man can have up to four wives but a woman can have only one husband. In Egypt, a honeymoon generally lasts a month. – AFP
