Man, Aged 20, Marries 77-Year-Old Virgin

TEHRAN (Reuters) - A 20-year-old Iranian man has married a 77-year-old
virgin in a village in the east of the country, newspapers said Wednesday.

They said the youthful groom, Hesam Khalili, had wed septuagenarian Fatemeh Jamshidi Khakhi in the village
of Gonabad in Khorasan bordering Afghanistan.

Ali Pourhossein, a local civil servant responsible for registering marriages, approved the match between the
young man and what newspapers called the ``happy girl,'' saying both were in perfect health and there was no
legal barrier to their nuptials.

Weddings between aged grooms and youthful brides are relatively common in Iran, but seldom the other way
round.

The official IRNA news agency speculated the groom had wed his aging bride so as to cut his two years of
military service. Married men only serve half the term, it said.

Bathhouse May Be Sued for Barring
Foreigners

TOKYO (Reuters) - A Japanese public bathhouse, criticized for refusing to admit foreigners in the past, may
be sued by three people who say their human rights were breached by not being allowed to enter, Kyodo news
agency said on Tuesday.

One of the plaintiffs, a U.S.-born male who recently acquired Japanese citizenship, said he was refused entry
because he ``looked like a foreigner,'' Kyodo reported.

The suit, seeking monetary compensation from the bathhouse in the city of Otaru on the northern island of
Hokkaido for violating basic human rights guaranteed in the constitution, will be filed with a local district court
next month, it said.

Court officials were not immediately available to comment.

The bathhouse has been facing protests from both foreigners and local Japanese residents for its sign refusing
entry of foreigners posted after a group of Russian sailors had caused disturbances in the bath, it said.

The sailors who docked at the Otaru harbor several years ago had allegedly drank alcohol while bathing,
sparking complaints and prompting some public bathhouses to post such signs, the report said.
