A Ugandan imam has been suspended after discovering his new wife was actually a man. Sheikh Mohammed Mutumba, 27, found out the truth when his bride was caught stealing a TV from a neighbour and was searched by police. The thief later admitted pretending to be a woman so he could marry the imam and steal his money, local media in Kayunga reported. Shocked Mutumba has been suspended from his duties as a cleric at the Kyampisi Masjid Noor mosque while an investigation is carried out. Mosque officials said they suspended the imam despite confirming he had entered the marriage thinking Nabukeera was a woman.
