Nigerian Involved In Marriage Scam In The Uk by johnblaze1: 11:19pm On Oct 30, 2010
A woman who was persuaded into agreeing to marry an illegal immigrant she fell in love with on the internet has been spared jail.
Cindy Bonsu, a Dutch national, and Dennis William, who is from Nigeria, met on Facebook and formed a genuine relationship, Manchester Crown Court heard.
But the pair hastily arranged a wedding using false papers after William begged her to save him from deportation.
The couple were about to tie the knot at St Chrysostom's church in Victoria Park, near Longsight, Manchester, when UK Border Agency officials intervened.
The paperwork had aroused suspicions and Miss Bonsu raised eyebrows by changing into her dress and doing her hair with straighteners after arriving at the church.
The 20-year-old and her prospective groom were arrested alongside his 22-year-old friend Ganiyu Ajao - another illegal immigrant who was going to witness the wedding knowing it had been arranged using false documents.
William, 26, had used utility bills with a bogus address to claim he and Miss Bonsu were living together. In reality, she lived in Barking, London, and he was sharing a house with Ajao in Worsley, Salford.
