Argentine woman marries twin sister's killer

 
 

BUENOS AIRES (AFP) - An Argentine woman tied the knot on Thursday with a man convicted of killing her twin sister.

No one from the family of 22-year-old bride Edith Casas attended the Valentine's Day civil ceremony in the town of Pico Truncado.

Afterwards, a group of around 20 people threw rocks and eggs at groom Victor Cingolani, who is serving a 13-year sentence for killing the sister, a fashion model named Johana, in 2010.

Cingolani was out on a day pass to get married and escorted by prison guards and riot police.
