Landlords’ gathering: Man ‘marries’ eunuch in Muzafargarh

Published: June 11, 2012

MUZAFFARGARH: A landlord celebrated his wedding with a eunuch publicly at a local marriage hall to the beat of music and dance.  Alcohol was openly served to guests throughout the night. Police provided security to the event that continued till late into the night, despite a legal ban on late night parties in the area. A resident of the area, Muhammad Aamir, has decided to go to court against the ceremony, while religious circles have also expressed resentment. Eunuch Nageena formally tied the knot with Malik Naveed who hails from Khan Garh at the party well attended by many rich young men of southern Punjab, who showered thousands of rupees on the dancing eunuchs.

    Well if some Religious Scholar will be born as an Eunuch then he could understand that they are human being too like people of other sexes. I hope in future we will see some Eunuch Religious Scholars as Male Religious scholars are disappointing us in general. Eunuch are naturally like that and why this is so that they are not considered human being with no marriage rights. Our religious scholars have a right to do 4 marriages but eunuch dont have a right for a single marriage.?

    Kudos and congrats are in order. All humans are created equal by God and should be treated as such. Two consenting adults are fine, more power to them. Have a great life.Recommend
