| A Sham Bride in the UK Caught as She was About to Marry Her Fourth Nigerian Husband. Posted: 09 Mar 2014 03:23 PM PDT  Raquel Neto Furtado De Andrade had already married three Nigerians to help give them the right to stay in Britain. Thought to be one of the country's most prolific sham brides, she is now behind bars serving a two-year sentence. She will be deported to her native Portugal on her release from prison. According to Daily Mail, her attempt to marry again for cash was foiled by suspicious staff at a register office. They tipped off immigration officials about the bigamous 22-year-old, who used the same wedding dress at each ceremony. Her scam was exposed at Harrow register office in north London. Checks revealed De Andrade had three 'husbands', none of which she had troubled to divorce. The fourth groom, a 32-year-old Nigerian, was arrested with her and has been kicked out of the country.  The couple arrived at the register office on October 3 with hardly any family or friends to support them on their supposedly special day. There were unexpected guests however – in the shape of a team of immigration officers. They pounced as the bogus ceremony was about to get under way. De Andrade, from Tottenham, north London, was charged with two counts of bigamy, two counts of facilitation and one count of perjury. She admitted the charges in February and was jailed at Harrow Crown Court. The hunt is still on for her three other husbands so they can be expelled too. | ||||||||||||||||||
