Free State groom jailed for four years
A Bloemfontein man who set alight his wedding venue was sentenced to four years' imprisonment in the Bloemfontein Regional Court on Friday.
Jean Greyling, 28, earlier admitted to setting alight a conference venue at the Emoya Estate outside Bloemfontein in July.
He had booked it as his wedding venue, but the owner cancelled the arrangement a day before the nuptials were to take place after Greyling reportedly failed to pay the deposit.
He eventually got married. His wife supported him in court on Friday.
