結婚できたのに。。。
パキスタンのカラチで、婚約者を射殺してしまったと勘違いした男が、自殺してしまったらしい。。。
この男、既に結婚の日が決まっているにも関わらず、その日取りを早めようと彼女を説得に彼女の家に行ったのだが、彼女が応じなかったため、空に向けて数発ぶっ放したということである。(そんなアホな。。。)
すると、外に出てきた彼女に流れ弾が命中し、彼女がその場にうずくまってしまった。
それを見た男、あろうことか、今度は自分に向けて発砲し、命を落としたということである。
ちなみに、彼女は無事らしい。。。
年末に結婚することが決まっていたにもかかわらず(もうすぐでっせ)、なぜ男は急いだのだろうか？
おまけに、銃まで持っているのはなぜなのだろう？
どうも不可解な事件ではあるが、結婚を目前にして婚約者を失った彼女も災難である。。。
おとなしくしていれば結婚できたのに。。。
この年になっても独身であるこのワタクシの頭の奥の方で「ざま～みろ」という声が聞こえるのは空耳だろうか。。。

Rush to marry ends in tragedy - Yahoo! News
Mon Oct 16, 10:35 AM ET
KARACHI (Reuters) - A Pakistani man has committed suicide outside his fiancee's home after he thought he accidentally killed her while trying to persuade her to get married early, police said Saturday.
The man, Ahmed Ashraf, was shooting a gun in the air outside his fiancee's home in the southern city of Karachi on Friday as part of his efforts to persuade her to get married two months early when a stray bullet accidently hit her, police said.
"He was so eager to get married he stood in front of his fiancee's house and started firing shots in the air to catch her attention," said investigating officer Ghulam Hussain.
The young woman was coming downstairs when a bullet ricocheted off a wall and hit her. She fell down screaming "I have been shot," Hussain said.
"He thought he had killed her and within seconds shot himself. The girl is fine," Hussain said.
"It is a tragic accident. They were engaged to be married with their parents' consent on December 25. He was insisting they get married earlier."
Ashraf had told his fiancee, Naureen, he would do something drastic if she didn't agree to get married straight away. The woman insisted the marriage date had already been set and there was no need to hurry, Hussain said.
