Would-be child bride no longer coming to school, says activist
ADS

The Rohingya refugee family who were forced to abort the wedding of their 11- year-old daughter in Prai has moved out of their home and the girl has not turned up for school at the Lightbridge Learning Center, said social activist Stanley Sudhagaran today.

Sudhagaran said the family has failed to send their child to school although they have vowed to do so after her marriage to a 21-year-old man was thwarted by the police with his help.
