5 booked for forced marriage of tribal minor girl

Five persons have been booked in connection with the marriage of a minor Katkari tribal girl from Maharashtra’s Palghar district. The case was registered at the Wada police station on a complaint by the 16-year-old girl. The accused persons include her husband, aunt, uncle and an agent. The girl lost her father a few years ago. Her mother then married another man, while the teenager went to live with her grandmother. However, she too passed away within two months. The agent paid Rs 50,000 to the girl’s mother and took the teen to Ahilyanagar district, where she was forcibly married at the age of 14. After the girl became pregnant, the accused made a fake Aadhaar card and got her admitted to a hospital in Wada. When she delivered a baby girl, she was allegedly harassed and her mother was told to return the money.
