Nigerian student arrested during sham marriage in the UK

28year old Nigerian student Louis Esene and his 22 year old 'bride' were caught during their bogus wedding when the registrar noticed they were uncomfortable with each other.

A bogus bride was caught out because she 'flinched' when her phoney husband-to-be touched her knee in a register office. Emilia Ginova, 22, was jailed today for posing as a blushing bride ready to walk up the aisle with her groom.

But a court heard Ginova had only first seen Nigerian student Louis Esene on the day of the service - and was being paid £3,000 to take part in the sham marriage. She was caught out by an eagle-eyed registrar who spotted her shocked reaction when Esene, 28, reached out to touch her leg.
