Thanks Ammi - I didn’t see that. The authorities don’t seem to have done much though considering it has been illegal for four years and is a considerable problem. I can’t imagine how terrifying it must be for those poor young girls forced to marry men, often old enough to be their fathers/grandfathers. How a mother can do that her her own daughter is beyond me.
