Man beaten up by his 4th wife after contracting 5th marriage

Although humiliating anyone in public is unethical and cannot be supported but some people do deserve it like the one in Okara who contracted fifth marriage.
According to 24NewsHD TV channel, the incident was reported in a crowded market where the man’s fourth wife Humaira suddenly appeared and abused/thrashed him in public.
It was the news that his husband has married again which prompted Humaira to take this action.
But the most depressing part of this story is the fact that the newly-wed bride is just 13-year-old – a prime example of the tendency in our society to marry young girls.
This practice causes underage marriages, resulting in serious emotional and psychological problems for the girls, as they are considered just a reproduction tool and an object for sexual satisfaction.
Unfortunately, every attempt to declare underage marriages punishable and raising the official adulthood age to 18 have been foiled in the country. So a girl with less than 18 years of age cannot cast her vote or get a driving licence or get job or open a bank account but is supposed to raise a family and give birth to children.
Meanwhile, there is no check on men who marry for the second time without any permission granted by the first wife, as this practice is still common in our country despite being barred legally.
