In Muzaffarnagar city in Uttar Pradesh state of India a community panchayat has slapped a fine of Rs 50,000(US$ 1250) on a man who refused to marry a girl at the last minute, apparently because he did not find her attractive.

Angered by the turn-around by the groom's side, family members of the girl confined the boy and baraat (relatives) for as long as 10 hours in the Kakrozi town of the district, villagers said.

They were freed after they paid the fine amount fixed by a community panchayat to the girl's family, they said adding the baraat returned to Chorawala village near Muzaffarnagar without the bride.
