It should be noted that this is not the first nor the last time at such an early age young arabka nasilstvenno to marry.
In the autumn of 2008, nine-year-old girl from Yemen named Arva filed for divorce against her husband, whom her father married forcibly, and won. This is the third girl in Yemen, which is protected in court and is the smallest of them. This number of petitions forced the government to revise the Law on early marriages.
These examples and encouraged other young Yemeni women like Noyud, which is now a national celebrity. She became the first girl who just presenting it to court and won such a divorce. The law in Yemen for marriage permits to enter only after age 15 years, but in impoverished areas, this rule is often violated. MEPs want to increase that age to 18 years, but conservatives actively oppose it.
