Celle, Germany - Officials are trying to expel a German citizen's sightless wife after 28 years of marriage because she does not know any German, a lawyer charged Friday in the city of Celle.
In a bid to wipe out foreign-language enclaves, Germany recently passed laws that deny long-term residency to anyone who does not pass a test in the German language. Lawyer Ulrich Wallmann said the woman could not study German grammar and vocabulary because she is blind.
