A wedding in one of Tangier's banquet halls descended into chaos last weekend when a woman in her thirties stormed in, discovering that her husband was secretly marrying another woman—without her knowledge or consent. According to the newspaper Assabah, the first wife, accompanied by her 8-year-old child, burst into the venue and confronted the groom in a fit of rage, revealing that he was her legal husband and the father of her child. She launched a torrent of insults at him in front of stunned guests. The scene sent shockwaves through the crowd, especially the second bride, who was reportedly unaware that her fiancé was already married with a child. She suffered a nervous breakdown as the confrontation unfolded. As the chaos escalated, the hall manager called the police. Authorities quickly arrived to investigate the incident and examine how the groom had managed to obtain a certificate of bachelorhood—a mandatory document for entering into a marriage contract in Morocco. Preliminary findings indicate that the man, who has since been taken into custody, had not followed the legal procedures required for a second marriage. Investigators believe he acquired the bachelorhood certificate based on false claims.
