(Breitbart) The Swedish government has been accused of allowing exceptions in a new bill aimed at banning the recognition of polygamous marriages carried out overseas.
Swedish Liberal Party MP Robert Hannah criticised the government bill this week, claiming that while the proposal is advertised as wanting to ban polygamous marriages, it leaves the door open to exceptions.
“The Riksdag [parliament] has clearly stated that NO polygamy should be recognised in Sweden. Nevertheless, the government now has a bill recognising polygamy in some cases,” Hannah said and asked Justice Minister Morgan Johansson when it was “okay for patriarchal men to be married to several wives?”
