What an interesting video!!! Ya know...when I was in Kyrgyzstan in the Peace Corps I knew girls who were "bride-kidnapped" and forced to marry even though it is technically illegal. It is still an old tradition. It was very difficult for me to understand how it could still happen when there was a law prohibiting it. I hope the new laws in Pakistan actually make a difference for young woman there!!!
