Default Forced Marriage Becomes Criminal Act In UK

http://news.sky.com/story/1282965/fo...inal-act-in-uk


This is Good News
for Pakistan and India women.


[A new law criminalising forced marriages which comes
into effect today could protect thousands of potential victims.
Forcing someone into marriage in England and Wales
will carry a maximum seven-year jail sentence under
the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014.]
