Police looking for parents who are on the run
Child brides break down in tears as they are forced to marry boys of mass Indian wedding ceremony. (YouTube) A mass child marriage ceremony has been captured on camera - showing young brides crying as they are forced to wed.
In the video that has been circulated on social media, a girl of around 10-years-old is seen crying and pleading for help as her father as he rags her to the ceremony.
In another clip a priest - conducting the Hindu ritual - is also seen scolding the children for crying.
In Chittorgarh in Rajasthan (India), six marriages took place over two days.
One of the child brides, a five-year-old, is seen dressed in a her bridal dress and is forced to walk around the fire with her child groom, an 11-year-old.
She is crying loudly but a man forces her to complete the wedding ritual, which involves walking around the fire seven times.
Police are investigating the families seen in the footage, all of whom are on the run or in hiding, MailOnline reports.
A child rights activist, Kriti Bharti of the Saarth Trust, has stopped more than 850 child marriages.
She says that society will never improve unless strict action is taken against the families who force children to marry.

James Woods will be 70 in April of next year. Her name is Kristen Banguess and he started dating her when she was 19. She previously was busted in Georgia for possession of both marijuana and some other kind of controlled substance, both felonies in that state.
To each his own.

Forced to marry police? A well placed comma might have clarified that...

“British rule made 11 years olds marry:”
Come on, get real. Engagements and marriages of state were common among royalty and nobility. These marriages, however, were not consummated before an appropriate age.

I don’t believe this article said it was to be consummated by the little kids, did it?

“I dont believe this article said it was to be consummated by the little kids, did it?”
The numerous references to child rape on this thread lead me to doubt that I was the only one to infer that these “brides” would be forced at the discretion of the new husband, and probably fairly quickly.

EXACTLY.
If a young attractive woman takes an interest in me, my first instinct is “Where’s the camera?”, and the next thought is “I’m not going back to jail over this”.

oh my god. You made your haiku correctly. I counted and am impressed.
To: ghosthost
Haikus technically do not contain punctuation, unless you’ve gone to public school in California, in which case anything goes!
You know, 5-7-white privilege!
