Asyut Court Sentences Man and Farmer
The Asyut Criminal Court sentenced a young man to life imprisonment in absentia and a farmer to seven years in prison in a case involving the marriage of a minor girl without her consent through a shadowy marriage contract in the Qusiyah Center. The incident dates back to the police receiving a report from a hairdresser stating that the 26-year-old "Ahmed M. S." had entered into an illegal customary marriage with 15-year-old "Meyada A. M.," with her father's consent despite her being a minor. Investigations confirmed that the girl told the Public Prosecution that she was forced into marriage last August, and that her father arranged the marriage without regard for the law, leading to the defendants being referred to trial.
