In a shameful incident, a case of a 14-year-old Pakistani Catholic girl, who was kidnapped from her residence in Karachi, converted to Islam and married off to a Muslim man, was in the Pakistan courts for some time. Shockingly, the judges said that if the girl has already had her first 'menstrual cycle', then she would be considered an adult under the Islamic Shariah Law, making her marriage with her abductor legal and justified.
