An offense-against-spouse adultery fine for the husband of the adulterer's partner, imposed on a man whose adulterous partner is married.
The possessor of the fine is the husband of the adulterer's partner, to whom the fine is paid.
Nangīnay gībuh di adangyan hi un way mangilugtap.
The offense-against-spouse adultery fine for a rich (man) is expensive if someone commits adultery (against him).
For a description of adultery, see lugtap. A man, single or married, pays adultery fines to the parents and close relatives of the husband of his partner. If both he and his partner are married, he also pays adultery fines to the parents and close relatives of his wife. If his partner is single, neither he nor his partner are considered to have committed adultery and no fines are paid. The fines are divided between his wife's relatives and those of his partner's husband. If it is established that an adulterous woman was the aggressor, she must contribute to the fine payment. This is rare, however, usually only involving a single-man partner. The fine consists of a set of up to 15 payments, see Appendix 24, Fines. The severity of the fine depends on the relative worth, in terms of material holdings, of the aggrieved persons. A separate set of fines, numbaīnan, is paid to the parents and close relatives of the adulteress.
