Bad news for Turks: Forced marriages will be a crime in Britain soon

Forced marriages will be a crime in Britain soon

LONDON: Britain plans to introduce a legislation to criminalize forced arranged marriages, prevalent mostly among South Asian, Turkish and Kurdish communities in the country, the home office said on Friday.

The legislation, likely to be introduced later this year or early next year, would also make anyone complicit in luring a British national or resident into a betrothal outside the country liable to prosecution.

"Forced marriage is abhorrent and is little more than slavery. To force anyone into marriage against their will is simply wrong and that is why we have taken decisive action to make it illegal ,'' said British Prime Minister David Cameron. "I want to send a clear and strong message: forced marriage is wrong, is illegal and will not be tolerated."

Officials say around 8,000 cases of forced marriages are reported in the UK annually. The British home office's Forced Marriage Unit said it provided advice or support in nearly 600 such cases this year, including 14% involving children below 15. Nearly half the cases implicated Pakistani families; others involved those from Bangladesh, India, Afghanistan and Turkey. The unit helped in 1,468 cases last year including one case involving a five-year-old victim and another linking an 87-year-old.

London-based Indian Overseas Congress president D L Kalhan welcomed the move, saying forced marriages are sadly known to take place in the Indian-origin community in the UK.

Authorities describe arranged marriages that do not have "the complete approval of the parties entering into such a union'' as forced marriages. The proposed law would cover England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The practice remains a criminal offence in Scotland. The scale of sentences available will be set out in the legislation. Asked whether criminalization might force the practice underground, Cameron said his government has a new package to identify possible victims, support those who have suffered first hand and prevent criminality wherever possible.

One way a child molestor to hide from society is to legally acquire a child through marriage. Bad news for turks and pakis indeed...

Excellent news, hope that whole Europe follows this civilized example of Britain! This is how the pioneer of women rights Ataturk would have liked it.

^ Britain is a trashy country where most married couples are swingers.
Who cares what they do?

The Western Civilization is a dead one; we're talking about a sinking ship.
We won't get on board. If you're so willing, please do... Yet don't cry later.

TCGiresun would like to get himself an arranged marriage obviously ...

whats the matter ? you cant find a girl to love you the way you are rather need someone to force her to even look at your face?

Poor internet molla ...obviously internet dating didnt work out for him too .

Now on the other hand ..Turkish arranged marriage rates are quite low in west ...if you talk about east where all the in family marriages occur ...thats kurdish ...so the turkish people that is being talked about in here are actually ...also Turkiye Kurds...that ran away to England or actually a little bit of the majority .

Indians marry with arranged marriage ...its quite big in their culture ...bigger than you can imagine .

^ We don't "rape" our cousins, sisters, mothers like your Marxist keko atheist brethens do in S-E Turkey; you ape-like deviant.
Who cares your opinion? You can't be considered to be human, above all.

Turks and Pakis won't be able to get married legally if that law passes. Probably they fake that they are "in love" to make their arranged marriages with their cousins appear legal.

Why is vaseline in my sig? Because Turks don't want to read what I post. Hopefully the lube makes it easier for those criminal scum who are such great cry-babies to swallow.
