Multiple arrests have been made at an event at Disneyland Paris which, media reports have confirmed, featured an alleged pedophile reportedly trying to “marry” a 9-year-old girl who was dressed in a wedding dress and had high heels taped to her feet.
“The park officials were told the whole thing was for a social media video, not an actual wedding, but apparently that didn’t check out because four people ended up arrested by the French police: the would-be groom, the girl’s Ukrainian mother, and two Latvian nationals,” according to a report at Not the Bee.
NEW: 39-year-old British man and known pedophile books a ‘wedding’ at Disneyland Paris to marry a 9-year-old girl from Ukraine.
Disgusting and horrific.
The man was arrested after paying $150,000 to book the ‘wedding,’ which was allegedly a ‘stunt.’

The man was identified as “Jaskarn Jhaj” and the Daily Star reported he was identified by prosecutors as being “registered on the British Sex Offenders’ Register.”
The report said he was “on the run” from U.K. police.

“Jaskarn Jhaj”, a most proper British name right there. https://t.co/xkV88GR71T

“French prosecutors claim the 39-year-old man was known in the UK for ‘sexual offences against minors’ and has been charged with various offences after staging a ‘pretend wedding ceremony’ with the Ukrainian child at the resort’s Sleeping Beauty castle,” the report said.
The Star said workers “grew suspicious” after seeing the young girl wearing a bridal dress “with four-inch heels taped to her feet,” and they called authorities.
The Independent confirmed there was a “British man arrested at Disneyland after fake wedding to nine-year-old girl.”
Le Monde called it “a bizarre ceremony.”
Not the Bee added, “Jhaj was wearing a disguise that had been ‘professionally made up in order to display a totally different face from his,’ according to the prosecutor’s office.”
The report explained the girl apparently was not injured, so the charges stemming from the incident apparently are just fraud.
