A 12-year-old girl who was missing for a week was found being guarded by a trio of lions, said police in Ethiopia. The girl had been abducted by a group of men who wanted her to marry one of them, said Sgt. Wondimu Wedajo from Bita Genet, about 560 kilometres from Addis Ababa. Police said the men beat her before she was found on June 9 after spending half a day with the lions. The lions left her when police and relatives discovered her on the outskirts of Bita Genet, said Wedajo. Local government official Tilahun Kassa corroborated the police account, saying one of the men wanted to marry the girl. A government wildlife expert said the lions may have mistaken the whimpering and crying girl for a lion cub and taken her into their protection. Kidnapping has long been part of Ethiopia's marriage custom. The United Nations estimates more than 70 per cent of all marriages in Ethiopia are the result of abduction. http://www.cbc.ca/story/world/national/200...opia050621.html discuss? |
