French police arrested a 22-year-old man, believed to be a Briton, on charges of attempting to marry a nine-year-old girl at Disneyland Paris on Saturday
Park staff, seeing the child with family and about 100 guests appear at the event, called the police.
Police arrived at the scene and detained the man along with the girl's 41-year-old mother, who is believed to be Ukrainian. The wedding ceremony was to take place at dawn, as private events such as weddings in the theme park are organized outside operating hours.
Four people were arrested and questioned: the groom, who is believed to have organized the event and is believed to be a 22-year-old Briton, the child's mother, a 41-year-old Ukrainian, and two Latvian citizens aged 55 and 24
It adds that "the detention period for the British suspect and the Latvian citizen was also extended on charges of fraud and money laundering."
The prosecutor's office also confirmed the initiation of criminal proceedings. Disneyland Paris told the French newspaper Le Parisien that the event was interrupted.
The circumstances of the wedding remain unclear, but the prosecutor's office stated that "a medical examination of the young girl revealed that she had not suffered any violence."
A police source later told Le Parisien that the groom said he was a director of a production company and that they were filming a video.
So, it was not a wedding, but a staged wedding, filmed with about a hundred extras. They privatized Disneyland Paris, pretending it was a real wedding
