Hilarious Video: The Proposal With Bovi And Ijeoma
Yemeni 8 Yrs Old Child Bride Dies After Having Sexual Intercourse With 40 Yrs Old Groom
An eight-year-old child bride has
died in Yemen of internal bleeding sustained during her wedding night after
being forced to marry a man five times her age, activists have claimed.
The girl, identified only as Rawan, died in the tribal area of Hardh in northwestern Yemen, which borders Saudi Arabia. Activists are now calling for the groom, who is believed to be around 40 years old, and her family to be arrested so they can face justice in the courts.
They say arrests would help put a stop to the practice of marrying very young girls to older men in the impoverished region. An Angry Man, a blogger, posted that the man was 'an animal who deserved to be punished severely for his crime'. 'All those who supported such a crime should also be punished,' he added.
