Turkish woman forced to marry her rapist
MUĞLA - Hürriyet Daily News


A young woman has married a man who her family previously locked her in a room with against her will, daily Akşam reported today.

An 18-year-old woman, identified only by the initials Ö.A., reportedly wished to break an engagement with a fiancé, 28-year-old T.G., who was chosen by her family. In response, her family shut her in a room with the man in the hopes that she would be forced to marry him if they had sexual intercourse.

The woman managed to escape from the room by jumping out of window and fleeing to the gendarmerie, resulting in the detention of her family and fiancé. Her family was later released.

During the Nov. 21 trial for the case, held at the Fethiye Court for Serious Crimes, it was revealed that the woman reportedly declared her wish to marry the man, who is currently being held in prison, and they were wed on Sep. 3 at the Fethiye Registry Office.

She reversed her previous statements and testified, “I wanted to keep the engagement phase a little longer. There was no problem. A few days before the incident, I stayed with my fiancé at his aunt’s home; there he said he wanted to have sex with me. When I refused, he left the room. Then I heard a voice from outside and jumped out of the window so that his aunt would not see me. I haven’t filed a complaint against him.”

Previously in August, however, daily Akşam reported the woman’s statement that her family was forcing her to marry her now-husband although she was in love with another man.

During the hearing, the man’s lawyer provided photos of the couple in an attempt to prove their affair and demanded the defendant’s release. The court board rejected the demand on the grounds that the man was charged with sexually assaulting her.

Do we really need more outdated news, that instrumentalize individual crimes just for the sake of endless flame wars that do not contribute at all to the forum?

I come here everyday to learn something new and/or teach something I know to someone that doesn't know it.
This is just plain vulgarity.

Whats this even doing in the United States sub-forum?

The article didn't even mention that he raped her.

In terms of criminal proceedings the guy would be prosecuted for attempted rape, thats if he did try to rape her and failed. If he did rape her then he would be prosecuted for rape.

From the article it sounds like some of her own family members would be charged for aiding and abetting an attempt of rape or aiding and abetting rape (if he did attempt to rape her or he did rape her).

Other charges they would all face would be false imprisonment and maybe kidnapping charges.

It doesn't sound like she was actually raped or that after being raped she was forced to marry the rapist.

Prince Abdullah II of Jordan was recently quoted as saying that Erdoğan told him Democracy is like a Bus Route, when he gets to his stop he's getting off. In otherwords the Islamists have taken over North Africa by revolution but Turkey by election.

Trust me if he wanted to bring Sharia, he could. There is nobody across him to prevent this. On the contrary, he praised secularizm on every platforum. His mindset look like christian democrats. People trying to show him pro islamist just because he against israel cruelty about palestinians.
