Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

David Curtis, 56, was sentenced to six months in prison, suspended, for bigamy after leaving his wife of 16 years in the UK under the pretext of going to work and marrying a woman 21 years his junior in Thailand. His wife learned of the second wedding through invitation cards and reported him to police, who arrested him upon his return to England. The case underscores the legal weight of marriage records even across borders.
