Underaged girl "married off" in Australia under sharia
The Australian Telegraph reported that a Muslim's been charged with marrying off his young daughter, and the "husband" was charged with illegal sexual activity:
In a case that has brought awareness of secret child brides in Australia, the girl’s father and the 26-year-old man she “wed” were charged in February over numerous child sex offences.Correction: she'd been indoctrinated and lied to.
Documents that formed part of a successful apprehended violence order application by police at the time against the girl’s “husband” state that the young girl “believed or had been informed that sharia law overrides the Australian law”.
“She stated that together with the accused they had been trying to get him registered as her legal guardian with Centrelink in order to obtain any welfare benefits they could,” the court documents state.Interesting. Another convert who's done as much harm to his child's health as the mainstay Islamisogynists have. And it looks like he sees nothing wrong with child bridemongering any more than the so-called husband does. He should be jailed for a long time for the damage he did to the daughter.
The police allege in the AVO document that the 26-year-old man, who was charged with 25 counts of sexual intercourse with a child, admitted to officers on the day he was arrested that he had had sex with the girl daily since the religious ceremony in the living room of the girl’s Hunter Valley home on January 12.
“When questioned on this he showed no remorse and was confident that in doing this he had committed no crime,” the police documents state. His matter is still before the courts and he is being held at Villawood Detention Centre after his student visa was revoked.
The child and the Lebanese university student met at a mosque through the girl’s 62-year-old father who is a Muslim convert, police alleged.
The girl’s father, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is charged with procuring a child for sex and accessory before the fact to sexual intercourse with a child.
Dressed in a traditional Islamic tunic, the father-of-seven fronted Burwood Local Court yesterday where he was committed to stand trial in the Sydney District Court.
His lawyer Mario Licha said outside court the father would be defending the charges.
The alleged child bride, who is now 13, and her eight-year-old sister remain in the care of the Department of Community Services.
