In a letter addressed today to the head of the appeal, Judge Mohammed Ali al-Jordi, SEYAJ stated that “… the guardian of the girl child was brought before same court in another case to be charged with” muscle “in order to force him to marry one of the kidnappers.

Not all those involved in the crime were arrested, but only one accused.
The child victim is held in custody by a tribal sheikh, although her guardian and her family have repeatedly asserted their demand to be extradited in exchange for clear obligations to protect her and not to harm her.
