The judge was relying on an article in the Tunisian Criminal Code which stipulates that while sex with a girl under 15 without the use of force is punishable by six years in prison, the culprit can halt proceedings by marrying the victim.
Sickening news about human rights abuses by Muslims keep mounting exponentially. Far too many in the West close their eyes to the suffering of innocents and focus instead on the so-called “Islamophobia” narrative, which serves as a diversion from the real crimes against humanity.
Muslims are already assaulting underage Western youngsters outside of Islamic states in shocking numbers across Europe, and apparently with reprieve, as no one is hearing about reports of sufficient penalties being meted out for their unthinkable crimes. But we did, however, hear about a Muslim migrant let off for raping a ten-year-old boy at a swimming pool because the man was having a “sexual emergency“; while in another case in Germany, a prosecutor declared to the girls assaulted: “they were just interested in you.”
“Tunisian court approves marriage of pregnant 13-year-old”, by Basma Atassi, CNN, December 14, 2016:
A Tunisian court Tuesday has approved the marriage of a 13-year-old girl to a 20-year-old relative who made her pregnant, a move that caused an uproar among organizations concerned with children’s rights in the country.
The marriage between the girl, from the northwestern region of Kef, and the brother of her brother-in-law took place in the presence of their parents, despite attempts to stop it.
The judge was relying on an article in the Tunisian Criminal Code which stipulates that while sex with a girl under 15 without the use of force is punishable by six years in prison, the culprit can halt proceedings by marrying the victim.
“In that particular case, the judge was simply abiding the law, which is definitely an antiquated law,” a fellow court judge, who did not want to be named because they are not authorized to speak with media, told CNN.
“Tunisia was one of the first countries in the region to ratify international treaties that guarantee the rights of children. However this law was never amended. It’s up to the judge to decide whether to apply it or not,” the judge said.
Marrying the ‘rapist’
A group of non-governmental organizations held a sit-in outside the court on Tuesday to protest the decision and released a joint statement expressing outrage over “approving a marriage between a 13-year-old child and her rapist.”
They called on the government to protect the pregnant girl and ensure that she continues her education.
The ministry of Women’s Affairs, Family and Children in Tunisia released a statement saying it was deeply concerned by the decision, adding that it had been trying to annul the marriage “for the sake of the child’s interest.”….

This is the type of perverted activity Moselems want to be able to do in all the Countries they are invading Germany, GB & the US & they will if political correctness is not discontinued

Actually, this may be a road to their downfall. If there is one thing most civilized countries abhor, it is the sexual abuse of children. Lets keep publicising these stories and hopefully, que the public’s sensibilities and remove the Islamic cancer from our lives.

Coming to a community neat you. And if you object, you’re a racist and an Islamophobe!
This is not a new problem, my home city of Portland has been fighting with illegal aliens (many from Central and South America) where adult men date and either abduct or rape underage girls, because, as the bleeding hearts will tell us, it’s normal in their home countries to date and impregnate girls as young as thirteen.
Nothing short of stiff penalties will stop this.

In this case, it’s sanctioned by their misogynist islamic law.

In the same logic, new possible Sharia sentences in the Muslim So Bright World:
Robber allowed to live in the house of those he robbed. He will not have to commit robberies anymore. And it will be so good for his new hosts, won’t it ?
Angemon says
I’m surprised. Not by the decision of the court, which is similar in nature to what we’ve seen reported in instances where Western women in the UAE reported a rape to the local law enforcement (but islam is not a monolith, right?!?!?!) and were told that since they admitted to having sex outside marriage they got to pick between marrying their rapist or doing time in prison, but that CNN is reporting on it. CNN, out of all news outlets.
Charles says
I find the unholy acts of muslims world wide to be so disgusting as to be to sickening to read before meals.
I’ve always known they worship SATAN, and that the founder of their PENIS cult was a psycopath,
But why anyone in the 21st Century would still follow it is a wonder!
Modern politicians and judges seem to be “under the spell” or hypnotized by this horrific cult as well!
To the rest of us, those who work for a living and must live in the real world, both their attitudes and actions remain incomprehensible!
Florida Jim says
Wherever muslims move if the follow The caliphate desire, Sharia, Jihad, Taqiyya and have CAIR be a mouthpiece to distract the media and threaten the accuser muslims should remain in the mideast they are unable to be civilized as we know it.Proving it all over the world does not change the facts.Every Imam, every Mosque every nation teaches hatred of Jews, Americans, Westerners and other sects which ultimately leads to a worldwide jihad to kill all enemies forever..
Schrödinger says
On current trends, this is the future for our daughters and what used to be our countries. Rape and sexual predation, already going on for years, aided and abetted by their entire communities, their Umma — and their wholly repugnant Holy KKKoran — will escalate horrifically as the numbers of muslims in our midst continues to increase in every nation foolish enough to admit and tolerate them.
Meanwhile, our Dhimmimedia has virtually nothing to say about such incidents unless they occur on the scale of the violation of Western women in Cologne, Germany last year. Even there, the reporting was belated, misrepresented, much played down and quickly forgotten so as not to implicate muslims and islam generally. Instead, all we hear about is the idiocy and tragedy of a youth who murdered a number of black parishioners in a Church last year, and the never ending plight of muslims in Aleppo — who’ve brought that appalling situation upon themselves.
If Western nations don’t soon awaken to the grim reality of islam and the existential danger of ever more muslims, they’ll instead awaken one morning to find themselves transformed into a loathsome, gigantic Dar al islam — a metamorphosis too nightmarish even for Kafka to have ever imagined. The licence to violate and “marry” non muslim women with impunity, as the sexual predator allah carefully authorised in KKK33.59 (and elsewhere) “Oh prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters, and the believing women, that they should cast their outer garments over their persons, so that they not be molested” will be the norm — along with rest of the barbarism and oppression of islam’s Sharia.
Troybeam says
This is not to let the man of the hook by marring a child he violated, this is Islam…his actions are permitted and its about saving honor for the girls family and nothing more otherwise they would have to kill the daughter to restore said honor to the family. The daughter means nothing except to sell or use otherwise.
I really feel for this child to be subject of her husbands misuse and likely forced to discontinue her education, she is his property now. Question remains will she die in child birth like so many before her.
Carolyne says
This may be shocking to most Americans, it certainly was to me, but many states, in fact most states, in the US permit underage marriage with the consent of parents. Some of the states specifically say if the girl is pregnant and some states do not mention the circumstances, For instance people can marry in California at any age if they have consent of parents. I found no mention of forced marriage so I assume that would be illegal, but this article doesn’t say if the girl was forcibly raped or whether she wished to marry the father of her child. Delaware and Colorado permit marriage with the parents’ consent at any age if the girl is pregnant. I don’t wish to go down the whole list of 50 states, but suffice it to say that most states would allow this if the girl is willing to marry the father of her child, with her parents’ or parent’s consent.
But no state allows forcible marriage if the parties are not freely willing to marry, and it appears that this is the case in the Tunisia example, although not specifically stated. I assume that is the case since there is some uproar about it in various groups.
I know that in many, if not most, Islamic countries a girl who has been raped may be forced to marry against her will, or just as a general rule be forced to marry without sex before marriage. I don’t know of any Islamic states which recognize marital rape as a crime. Child marriage of little girls is a horrendous practice and should be stopped even though the “Prophet” (Piss be upon him) married a six year old and raped her when she was nine. But I do have some reservations about condemning a marriage if the girl is pregnant at a young age, had sex voluntarily, and wants to marry the father. Of course, in the West we have an “Age of consent” which apparently is not a factor in Islam, but can be abrogated in some circumstances in the US, Loretta Lynn was married at 13. I certainly do not recommend this nor do I condone it but it is a fact of life.
Troybeam says
Carolyne, time for you to bone up on Islam, Seriously, Putting doubt on what happened to that 13 year old child is a sick idea, perhaps you should read up on what the migrant Muslims are doing in Europe to women, men and children: they are raping and killing people because they think its OK because hey Mohammad did so centuries ago, Islam seldom convicts men of rape, after all Islam states a man may beat his wife so whats to stop him from raping her if she says no, on that topic in Islam a wife is supposed to submit any time the husband wants sex, she cannot say no at any time, the only time she can say NO is when her menus is happening and after child birth.
gravenimage says
I’m afraid your questioning whether Tunisia would allow a rapist to marry his victim is mistaken.
Here’s another appalling case there:
“‘It’s Your Fault’: Tunisian TV Host Tells Woman to Marry Rapist”
https://www.thequint.com/fighting-rape/2016/10/27/its-your-fault-tunisian-tv-host-asks-woman-to-marry-rapist-haryana-panchayat-survivor-madras-high-court-p-devadass
Forcing victims to marry their rapists is rife in Tunisia, under Article 227 of Tunisian law.
And here’s the same story from nearby Muslim Morocco:
“Morocco: 16-year-old girl kills herself after being forced to marry her rapist”
https://www.jihadwatch.org/2013/11/morocco-16-year-old-girl-kills-herself-after-being-forced-to-marry-her-rapist
This is mainstream Islam, and it is the *victim* who is dishonored under Islam, not the rapist.
Falsafa says
Dear “Jihad Watch” Editors
the picture associated with this story is that of a demonstration in Turkey opposing a motion on parliment decriminalizing marriage in the rural parts of the country….in particular the south east of the country below the legal age of 18… which is a problem, where everything should be done to encourage and incentivize girls and their families to pursue scholastic education instead.
The picture posted with your article has nothing to do with rituals and practices in Africa (Tunus). Please get your facts straight!
Moh says
As a Tunisian and a Christian I really feel heart broken hearing such a stories took place in my country and between my people, I feel so bad about the young girl and just want to say to the judge that if i want to be his son in law , do i have to rape his daughter, is that law and order ?
