A PECULIAR CASE.
[BY TELEGRAPH.PRESS ASSOCIATION-.] Wellington, Friday. Some days ago a Chinese, charged with indecently assaulting a girl fourteen years old, was before the Magistrate, when it was announced that he had been married to the girl. Counsel for the prisoner contended that the latter was now an incompetent witness. The police, however, intend to proceed with the prosecution, and the case will be heard next week.
