A young girl in Yemen died after having sexual relations with a 40-year-old man who became her husband in an arranged marriage, according to media reports.

The 8-year-old was identified as “Rawan” and died from torn genitals and severe bleeding in the northwest city of Hardh, Gulf News reported, citing Yemen media accounts.

The child lived in a tribal area that borders Saudi Arabia. Human rights organizations have called for the arrest of the husband, the news site Al Bawaba said.

Yemen has often been criticized for allowing girls to be forced into arranged marriages.

Human Rights Watch reports that 14% of girls in Yemen are married before age 15, with 82% married before they are 18.

The country passed a law in 2009 setting the minimum age for marriage at 17. It was later repealed after conservative lawmakers said it went against Islamic teachings.

    It is beyond - what is wrong with people.

    A security official in the provincial town of Haradh denied any such incident had taken place. He did not want to be identified because he was not authorised to speak to the press.

    But two Meedi residents contacted by Reuters confirmed the incident and said tribal chiefs had tried to cover up the incident when the news broke, warning a local journalist against covering the story.

    My first thoughts as well.

    Worse is that I believe she's not an exception - maybe only in her heartbreakingly-short life being reported amid the many not.

    so terrible.

    an 8 year old. the equivalent of a 3rd grader here.

    how can any man even be sexually aroused by an 8 year old knowing that their little bodies are not even matured enough to be prepared for intercourse??

    this story makes me really sick to my stomach. even if it turns out to be false, the thought makes me physically ill.

  • unfortunately like with most things in this world...it's all about the benjamins baby. the fathers of these young girls get paid to give away their daughters. and in cultures where women are considered less than dogs, it's a win/win for the father. he doesn't have to pay to support his daughter anymore and he gets the dowry from the future husband. it's just so repugnant.
    if you think what I believe is stupid, bizarre, ridiculous or outrageous.....it's ok, I think I had a brain tumor when I wrote that.

    You can understand their desire to cover up the story. I mean... come on... imagine if this sparked a movement to restrict their license to bed 8 year olds?

    I'm sorry, but this is despicable behaviour supported by a culture that provides for it.

    You guys that want to call my post low need a reality check. Don't give me your holier than thou attitudes and look down upon my post. A child died in a violent fashion, there's no excuse for either way. Point your anger at your President that kills children by the dozens instead of someone calling out the truth.

    I never knew we judged people by the degree of barbarity on which a child is killed. You exhibit outrage on the death of one, where are your threads when the Nobel Peace President rains down drone missiles upon dozens?

    That outrage is there.

    It's throughout various (and numerous) other, more appropriate threads. This thread was dedicated to a young girl and many others like her in an oppressive society. It wasn't meant to be dismissed, derailed and turned into... yet again... another Obama bashing thread.

    Saudi Arabia: Islamic cleric rapes, tortures, kills daughter, pays fine
    In Saudi Arabia an Islamic cleric who admits to raping, torturing and killing his daughter received a fine but no jail time for his heinous crime. Saudi media reports that the father paid 200,000 riyals ($50,000 US) in “blood money” for his crime, but will not be required to serve any time in prison.

    In response to the heinous crime, and lack of justice for five-year old victim Lama al-Ghamdi, the women's rights activist Manal al-Sharif and others issued a press release on Feb 2, and launched a Twitter campaign using the hashtags #AnaLama (Arabic for "I am Lama") and #IamLama, demanding legislation criminalizing violence against women and children.

    Fayhan al-Ghamdi, the victims father and a popular Islamic preacher who has made numerous television appearances promoting Islam, confessed to the heinous crime. Ghamdi told Saudi officials he used cables and a cane on his five-year-old daughter, leaving her with multiple injuries, including a crushed skull, broken ribs and left arm, extensive bruising and burns. In addition, one of Lama’s fingernails had been torn off. Hospital staff reports the child’s rectum had been torn open and the abuser had attempted to burn it closed.

    Reports indicate the father had doubted his five-year old daughter's virginity.



    Lama al-Ghamdi died last October. The amount her father was fined for the brutal rape, torture and murder, would have been doubled if Lama had been male. In Saudi Arabia, Islamic law is interpreted to be that a father cannot be executed for murdering his children, nor can husbands be executed for murdering their wives.
