Bride 'delivery service' for sham marriage ring exposed when couple 'had to use iPhone app to converse because they spoke different languages'

A 'delivery service' for foreign brides was exposed after registrars became suspicious because a couple used an iPhone app to talk to each other during their wedding ceremony, a court has heard.
One bride allegedly booked a flight to Prague within hours of tying the knot while a second couple went to KFC to celebrate their union, the jury at Manchester Crown Court was told.
Prosecutors say ten women were shipped into Britain on cross-channel ferries between September 2012 and June last year before marrying Asian students who had 'questionable' immigration status.

June and Barry Steenkamp condemned the judge for making 'so many mistakes' throughout the trial which resulted Pistorius being found guilty of culpable homicide for the shooting of their daughter
