A Muslim man who tried to kill himself after being attacked over his sexuality is believed to have become the first of his faith in the UK to wed in a same-sex marriage.

Jahed Choudhury, 24, grew up feeling ostracised because he was gay and was sent on a religious pilgrimage to change his sexual orientation.

After a lifetime of bullying that led him to attempt to take his own life, 19-year-old Sean Rogan found him crying on a bench. Now married, they have not looked back since.
