In a bizarre incident, Saudi Arabia has imposed a ban on its men from marrying women from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Chad, and Myanmar.
News Agency Dawn cited a Saudi media report, saying that men who want to marry foreigners will now have to face more restrictions.
According to unofficial figures, there are about 500,000 women from these four countries currently residing in the kingdom.
Qurashi said divorced men would not be allowed to apply within six months of their divorce.
