Dad, 50, with three wives welcomes 60th child – and says he wants even more

A dad-of-60 has welcomed his most recent child into the world - but already has plans for baby 61.

Sardar Jan Mohammad Khan Khilji's latest tot is called Haji Khushhal Khan.

The busy dad was snapped cradling his newborn son while surrounded by over a dozen of his other young children.

The dad from Quetta, Pakistan, boasts a large brood thanks to the help of his three wives.

And he is now asking friends to help him find lucky wife number four.

It is not known when he first became a father or the ages of his other children.

Sardar, who works as a doctor, is said to be struggling to feed his family due to spiralling food costs.

Speaking to local media he said: "Business has come to a standstill.

"The prices of all basic things including flour, ghee and sugar have tripled.

"For the last three years, all Pakistanis, including the whole world, are facing difficulties, including me."

The doctor is also said to have pleaded with the Pakistani government to provide him with a bus for family outings.

Another polygamous father, Musa Hasahya, 67, from Lusaka in Uganda, has 12 wives but has vowed not to have any more sprogs because he's struggling to feed 102 mouths.

Musa, from a country where polygamy is permitted, has now ordered his wives of "child-bearing age" to take the contraceptive pill.

The dad-of-102 says he can't "tolerate bearing any more children because of the limited resources ".

He added that he's sent wives to family planning.

Musa also warned anyone planning to take "more than four wives" to swerve tying the knot.

The family live together on a compound with a 12-bedroom house in Lusaka, Uganda.

Another man with nine wives has said it's "first come, first served" as to who will be their mother after one spouse left the marriage.

Brazilian model Arthur O Urso made headlines last month after saying he wanted to marry two more women despite having a sex rota to keep his wives satisfied.

But after one of his partners left, Arthur hopes to expand his family with a baby.

Arthur and his first wife Luana Kazaki, are swingers who formalised the union with the other women at a Catholic church in Sao Paulo.

But the marriage is not legally binding as polygamy is illegal in Brazil.
