Yemen: Child bride 'dies after wedding'






Hajjah, 8 April (AKI) - A 12-year-old Yemeni child bride died of severe internal bleeding just three days after her wedding, according to a report in the pan-Arab daily al-Quds al-Arabi on Thursday.

Ilham Mahdi Shui al-Asi died in hospital last Friday from a ruptured womb which caused a fatal haemorrage, according to doctors quoted by al-Quds al-Arabi.

The girl reportedly died in al-Thawra hospital in Yemen's northern Hajja province, on Friday just three days after her arranged marriage to a man in his 20s in what is known as a 'swap' marriage.

Her husband's family did not pay a dowry, but instead married a female relative of the same age to al-Asi's brother, according to Yemen's Forum al-Shaqaiq rights group.

"This girl was a martyr to the arranged marriages of minors which are still taking place in this country," the group said in a statement.

The girl's death is likely to rekindle moves to impose a legal age for marriage.

Attempts to set a minimum marriage age of 18 have failed in recent years due to opposition from Islamist groups and tribal leaders.

Last September, a 12-year-old girl died in childbirth in Yemen.

Why did I not read about the Palestinian "day of rage" in The Plain Dealer? Hamas and Fatah incited their adherents to special rage, intimidation and violence, because Israelis rebuilt and rededicated their old Hurva synagogue in Jerusalem's Jewish Quarter. It had been destroyed by Jordan in 1948 and its congregation driven out. They are also using lies to alarm their people that Israel will destroy their Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem. Moshe Dayan gave them the site in a gesture of peace in 1948, and Jews never spoil religious property.


On the other hand, Islam is a replacement theology, destroying all that preceded and denouncing all that may come after.

Your readers are not getting a clear picture of what happens in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank if the focus is only on home construction in Jerusalem. In all fairness, the public should be properly informed when Islamic totalitarianism tries to take over democracies -- or we will never be able to protect our own.
