kadi who solemnised the marriage between the 41-year-old man and his child bride.

Hisham also explained to the man that he should register their marriage in Malaysia.

The marriage, which took place on June 18, went viral due to the bride’s tender age.

Datuk Seri Najib Tun

Razak, reported Kosmo!

Ellie said she was there to show her support by fighting for justice without expecting anything in return.

“We were not paid; don’t accuse me of taking money, makan dedak or so on.

“I am not someone who can be bought.

“What happened at the court was not planned. Everyone who was there just expressed the same feeling,” she said.

Ellie added that she started supporting Najib after Barisan Nasional lost in GE14.

She said her move was because she was worried of the fate of the Malays under the new Pakatan Harapan Government.
