Sweden launches inquiry into forced marriage
The Swedish government has announced the launch of an inquiry aimed at tightening legislation banning forced and child marriages, which it identified as a continuing problem: “Many times these types of marriages are entered into abroad and often affect girls and boys, young women and young men, who often live in a reality of honour-related violence and oppression,” integration and equality minister Nyamko Sabuni and justice minster Beatrice Ask said in a joint statement on Thursday.
