Muslim Refugees Married to Children in European Asylum Centers Daniel Greenfield

This is what happens when the inmates are running the asylum. And the refugee policy.
Some child brides are living with older husbands in asylum centers in Scandinavia, triggering a furor about lapses in protection for girls in nations that ban child marriage.
That ban child marriage currently. How long will that hold up? It’s all about the numbers. As it is there are layers upon layers of special exceptions for Muslims. Case in point…
Authorities have in some cases let girls stay with their partners, believing it is less traumatic for them than forced separation after fleeing wars in nations such as Afghanistan or Syria.
Would child rape victims from Denmark or Norway be allowed to stay with their rapist because it was deemed less traumatic for them? That seems to be a special rule for Muslim refugees. And how did the authorities determine this? Were they able to talk to the girls directly, without an interpreter or their “husband” in the room? Did they even bother to try?
Both these issues have caused unease in Scandinavia, where critics say that the authorities risk complicity in child abuse.
Risk complicity? They are complicit. If you house a girl together with her abuser, you are complicit.
“Minors seeking asylum are in a difficult situation where they have left their homeland, family and friends, and the partner they have traveled with can be the only person they know and trust in Norway,” said Heidi Vibeke Pedersen, a senior UDI official.
So we’re now calling the abusers “partners”, are we?
“To place them with their partner in facilities rigged for adults is not acceptable,” said Camilla Kayed, of the Ombudsman for Children Norway, an official watchdog for children’s rights.
How Islamophobic. Mohammed married a six-year old. Aren’t his co-religionists entitled to the same freedom?
In February, Danish Integration Minister Inger Stojberg said that she would “stop housing child brides in asylum centers” after a review found dozens of cases of girls living with older men.
“There will never be exceptions in cases where one side is below the age of 15,” she said
Below 15. Yes that’s what we’re dealing with here.
In the north Norwegian county of Finnmark, authorities are investigating circumstances surrounding a Syrian girl, now aged 16 who already has one child and is pregnant again, police lawyer Jens Herstad said.
“We still have to hear the husband’s account,” he said.
Yup. Better get the full story. I’m sure he’s got a great story.
