A bogus Nigerian bride Uzoma Onwuha,
30, and groom and Robert Horvath, 35,
have been jailed after rounding up
guests for their sham wedding from a
local bus stop.
The fake couple exchanged vows at
Cardiff register office, in front of
strangers they'd met on the way to
their ceremony in Cardiff, Wales after
Onwuha had paid Horvath £1,000 to
marry her so that she could get the
necessary paperwork to stay in Britain.
Staff at the register office soon
became suspicious because the 'couple'
couldn’t give basic details about each
other.
Later, a police investigation showed
that one guest revealed that he was
invited after the pair found him at a bus
stop nearby.
Cardiff Crown court heard that as soon
as their big day was over the
newlyweds went their separate ways.
Onwuha caught a bus back to her home
in London alone where she was
arrested.
Meanwhile, Horvath was seized in a
raid on his home in Newport, South
Wales, where he was found living with
another woman.
