an arranged marriage is when two sets of parents introduce what they see as a suitable couple to each other, the couple meet up and decide if they want see each other more.
their is nothing sinister in it, a hindu friend of mine was introduced to over 20 girls and then married someone else.
a forced marriage is not allowed in this country or any other country, to my knowledge.
these are very popular in rural communities of certain countries.
the police in this country have had a set up with the authorities in karachi, lahore and hydrabad for a long time now.
they have rescued many victims of these forced marriages and brought them back to the UK.
the main problem we have is this ignorance of the difference, teachers, social workers etc fail to notify the authorities
of a young girl or boy that has not turned up for school for some time.
sadly they are dopey enough to think it is part of someones culture.
