RAMROD 117,010 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 A 29-year-old engineer was reportedly kidnapped and forced to marry a woman at gunpoint in Bihar, East India. The video clips from the wedding show Vinod Kumar, a junior manager at Bokaro Steel Plant, dressed as a groom, being thrashed and forced to perform wedding rituals in Patna's Pandarak area. As he begs to be released and continues to cry for help, a group of women, allegedly from the woman's family, try to convince him to cooperate. Reports show that the police received nearly 3,000 complaints of groom kidnapping in 2016, none of the which were annulled. #Dowry Full news at these sources: http://www.asianage.com/amp/india/all-india/050118/bihar-29-yr-old-engineer-abducted-forcefully-married-at-gunpoint.html#click=https://t.co/gSI19rVs8x https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/bihar-engineer-forced-to-marry-at-gunpoint-kept-crying-during-rituals-1796252?amp=1&akamai-rum=off#click=https://t.co/LbX73sT38K terrible (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ ᶠʳᵒⁿᵗ ᵗᵒʷᵃʳᵈ ᵉⁿᵉᵐʸ (*´艸`*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I feel hopeless about my country. :holyshit: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that the bride can have bright future when she marry a man with promising job? Groom abduction by the bride's family in Bihar is done to avoid paying dowry. In a regular social marriage where the groom is an Engineer with a good job, the bride's family would to pay crazy amounts of dowry. In cases like OT the bride's family fight one social injustice (dowry) by committing another (abduction and forced marriage). The demand and payment of dowry are prohibited under Indian Penal Code. However, the system of implementation is broken in most parts of the country. 2 hours ago, RainbowBlonde said: In Asia, marriage is severely overrated So true. :holyshit: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
