An 12-year-old boy will marry his cousin, 11,
after the groom-to-be’s father gave the
couple’s engagement his blessing, Mailonline
reports.

While family and friends celebrated Nasser
Hassan’s eldest son’s lavish wedding, the
father decided to ‘double the joy’ in Egypt by
announcing the engagement. Egyptian law
prohibits marriages for anyone under 18 and
the decision for Omar, 12, and Gharam, 11,
to marry has sparked outrage among
activists.

The father told Egypt’s Al Watan newspaper
there was ‘nothing inappropriate’ about the
couple, adding that it was only ‘an
engagement, not a marriage’. The wedding
of the older brother was held 75 miles north
of Cairo, and when the announcement was
made, guests didn’t bat an eyelid, according
to the Washington Post.

But photos of the young couple were
published in local media which were met
with anger. Reda Eldanbouki, the head of the
Women’s Center for Legal Aid and
Counseling, reported the incident to
government agency the National Center for
Childhood and Motherhood.

He also filed a complaint with the attorney
general to investigate the incident and hold
the parents accountable for this ‘crime,’ he
said, adding: ‘will only lead to an early
marriage in which the girl will be deprived of
equal chances to education, growth, and will
isolate her from social spheres.’ Omar’s
father brushed off any criticism, and
said he ‘is a free man and did nothing
wrong’.

He said: “Omar has always loved
Gharam so much that he used to say he will
marry her when they grow up before any
other man asks for her hand in marriage
when she is older.

They will get married when they reach the
legal age.” He said both children acted
‘beyond their years’ and had ‘strong feelings
for each other’ through Facebook and other
social media and ‘wanted to get engaged’.

Muslims are funny.

Your a big idiot - such marriages happen in muslim and christian religions. Olodo's and their belief that Christianity is an untainted religion (another success of the white man in Africa) Better go read history books before speak around "well" educated people.
