The husband used marriage to obtain permanent residency in Australia.
According to the BBC and other foreign media, A, a woman living in Melbourne, Australia, met a man on an online dating platform in September 2023.
The two met regularly and enjoyed dating, and in December of the same year, the man proposed to A and received approval.
Two days after the proposal, the man asked A to attend a 'white party' in Sydney.
According to the party concept, all participants will wear white clothes, so bring a white dress.
However, upon arriving at the party, A felt suspicious when he realized that there were no other guests except his partner, the photographer, the photographer's friends, and the celebrant.
The others didn't even wear white. A tells the man "What's going on?When asked ," he replied that he had prepared a 'joke wedding' for his social media, specifically Instagram.
He has more than 17,000 followers on Instagram, so A accepted the explanation.
Since then, it has gone on like a normal wedding ceremony, such as a wedding pledge and a kiss.
About two months later, the man asked A to add him to the Australian green card application as a dependent.
When she said "I can't do it because I'm not married," he revealed that the wedding in Sydney was real.
A later found documents such as marriage certificates that he had not signed and realized that he had been deceived. He also felt angry that he used himself to obtain permanent residency.
In response, she filed a lawsuit in court to invalidate the marriage.
The judge said "A did not give any real consent to his participation in the marriage."We decided to nullify the marriage.
