00:00It's... Have you ever heard of a wedding on a moving bus?
00:03Well, get ready for a story you won't believe.
00:07It all starts on a bus journey from Lahore to Abbottabad.
00:11The bus had just left the station when a very well-dressed old man,
00:15sitting right at the front, stood up to address everyone.
00:18He began with a heartbreaking tale.
00:21Explained that he wasn't a beggar, but life had dealt him a series of devastating blows.
00:26First, his beloved wife passed away after a short illness.
00:30Then, a fire broke out in his factory,
00:33wiping out his entire import-export business and all his savings.
00:38He said all his wealth was turned to ashes.
00:42As his financial situation worsened,
00:44his relatives, who were once close, started to distance themselves.
00:49But the worst was yet to come.
00:51He told the passengers that his own health was failing.
00:54Sir had a serious heart condition,
00:58and doctors had given him very little hope.
01:01He choked up as he explained his biggest fear,
01:05leaving his young, unmarried daughter all alone in the world.
01:09He was terrified about who would protect her and her dignity after he was gone.
01:13He said she would have no one to look after her.
01:16As he was speaking, he started hiccuping uncontrollably,
01:20clearly overwhelmed with emotion.
01:21His daughter, a young woman sitting beside him,
01:25quickly stood up, gently helped him back into his seat,
01:29and gave him some water, trying to calm him down.
01:33The sight of this devoted daughter and her distraught father
01:36touched the hearts of everyone on the bus.
01:39The passengers were visibly moved,
01:41whispering among themselves about the family's tragic circumstances.
01:45Just then, a man from one of the back seats stood up.
01:49He introduced himself and said he had two sons.
01:53One was a doctor who was already married.
01:56His other son, he said,
01:58pointing to a young man sitting near the front,
02:00was an engineer and was currently looking for a suitable bride.
02:04He then made an astonishing proposal.
02:07He turned to the old man and said,
02:10I have seen your daughter and heard your story.
02:13Oh, I request you to accept my son as your son-in-law.
02:18I promise you, I will treat your daughter as my own
02:22and will never let her feel the absence of her father.
02:25Please, give us the honor of this relationship.
02:29The bus fell silent as everyone looked towards the young engineer.
02:32The young man then stood up, looked at the old man and his daughter
02:36and with a confident voice said,
02:38I accept this proposal.
02:41A word, be honored to marry your daughter.
02:44A wave of relief and happiness spread through the bus.
02:48People started murmuring with excitement.
02:51Before anyone could process this whirlwind romance,
02:55another man, who appeared to be a cleric, stood up,
02:59had a long beard and a prayer cap
03:01and he addressed the passengers with a warm smile.
03:04He said,
03:05My dear brothers and sisters,
03:07this is truly a blessed journey.
03:10We are witnessing something beautiful.
03:13To perform a sacred act like a marriage during this trip
03:15would make it even more special.
03:18If no one has any objection,
03:20I would be happy to perform the marriage ceremony
03:22right here, right now.
03:25The passengers erupted in cheers.
03:28Shouts of Mashallah and Subhanallah.
03:31Filled the bus.
03:33But, uh, everyone was thrilled to be part of such a unique and heartwarming event.
03:38They all agreed enthusiastically.
03:41And so, the cleric conducted the marriage ceremony
03:44right there on the moving bus.
03:46The young engineer and the girl were officially married,
03:49with a bus full of strangers as their witnesses.
03:51The celebration wasn't over yet.
03:55Just as the ceremony concluded,
03:57another man stood up,
03:59holding a large box.
04:00He announced,
04:01I was taking these Ledoux's,
04:03these sweets,
04:04home for my family's celebration.
04:07But,
04:07after witnessing this blessed occasion,
04:10I feel it is only right to share them with all of you here.
04:13He turned to the bride's father
04:14and asked for his permission to distribute the sweets.
04:17The bride's father,
04:19now looking much happier,
04:20smiled and spoke to the driver.
04:23Driver,
04:24please,
04:25could you stop the bus somewhere for five or ten minutes?
04:28Let us all share this sweet moment together.
04:30The driver,
04:32also caught up in the joyous atmosphere,
04:34readily agreed,
04:36saying,
04:36Of course,
04:37Babaji.
04:38He pulled the bus over at a quiet spot by the roadside.
04:41The sun had set,
04:43and twilight was settling in.
04:45The man with the box went around,
04:47free,
04:48offering delicious Ledoux's to every single person on the bus,
04:52including the driver and the conductor.
04:55Everyone was laughing and congratulating the new couple and their families.
05:00It felt like a big,
05:01happy family celebration.
05:04After enjoying the sweets and the happy moment,
05:07the passengers started to feel a bit drowsy.
05:10One by one,
05:11they dozed off in their seats,
05:12lulled by the gentle motion of the bus
05:14and the sweet taste of the Ledoux's.
05:17The driver and conductor also felt sleepy
05:20and decided to take a short nap
05:21before continuing the long journey.
05:25The next morning,
05:26the driver was the first to wake up.
05:28He looked at his watch,
05:30or where his watch was supposed to be.
05:32It was gone.
05:34He felt a jolt of panic.
05:36He looked around and realized the sun was high in the sky.
05:40It was already 8 a.m.
05:42He quickly shook the conductor awake.
05:46Zay looked around the bus.
05:48A chilling realization dawned on them.
05:51The passengers were all still fast asleep.
05:53But six people were missing.
05:57The bride and the groom were gone.
05:59The bride's frail father was gone.
06:02The groom's father was gone.
06:04The cleric who performed the ceremony was gone.
06:08And the generous man who distributed the Ledoux's was also gone.
06:12That's when the chaos began.
06:14The chaos began.
06:15Zay.
06:16The other passengers slowly woke up.
06:18They discovered they had been robbed.
06:20Every single one of them.
06:23Watches, wallets, cash, jewelry, mobile phones,
06:27everything of value was gone.
06:29The Ledoux's, it turned out, had been drugged.
06:33The entire wedding was a meticulously planned scam.
06:36The six individuals, the father, the daughter, the groom,
06:41the groom's father, the cleric.
06:43Nez Suite Distributor were all part of a professional gang of thieves.
06:48They had played their roles perfectly,
06:50preying on the kindness and emotions of the passengers,
06:53only to rob them blind while they slept.
06:57The blessed wedding on the bus turned out to be the most elaborate heist
07:00these passengers had ever seen.
