Pakistan police arrest six over child wedding
AFP 3 hours ago
Multan (Pakistan) (AFP) - Police have arrested six people accused of arranging the marriage of a seven-year-old boy and six-year-old girl in eastern Pakistan, officials said Saturday.
The fathers of both children, the cleric performing the ceremony, and three witnesses were charged under the Child Marriage Restraint Act on Saturday after being arrested in Punjab province on Friday, senior police official Saifullah Khan told AFP.
They face six months imprisonment and/or a fine of 50,000 rupees ($500).
Local police chief Mehr Riaz Hussain said the accused have denied that the wedding took place, but police have it on video.
Pakistani lawmakers last month withdrew a proposal to impose harsher penalties on those who arrange child marriages after it was scuttled by a religious body which branded it "blasphemous" and against Islam.
The proposal, which would also have raised the legal age of marriages for females from 16 to 18, called for "rigorous" punishment of up to two years in prison for those who organise child marriages, still common in some parts of Pakistan.
The original law stipulates the age of marriage to be 16 for women and 18 for men but Pakistani religious scholars at the Council of Islamic Ideology, believe it is not in accordance with Islamic teachings.
They say there is no specific age limit for marriage in Sharia as an individual can marry when he or she reaches puberty and puberty cannot be defined by age. Rights activists strongly criticized the rejection of bill.
Those muslim scum and that Sharia law crap..
I am pretty damn sure that nobody reaches puberty at age 6!!!!!
Filthy animals, its all about sex with them. The muslim men even demand the right to have sex with their wives after they die!
Yet we have millions of American morons(appeasers) defend these ffing swine .......
That too is sickening because most of the damn infidels appeasers do not even know the very basics of the damn murdering, raping and torturing cult that they defend!--Tyr
