In Yemen a 8 year old child bride, a pretty small girl, died recently on her wedding night from internal hemorrhaging.
A man almost five times her age was married to her. Its a very common practice in Yemen to marry child bride‘s to older men.
In 2010, a 12 year old girl was died suffering in the labor room trying to give birth to a baby. There have been many more incidents to these types recorded so far as almost a quarter of the female population are married before the age of 15 in Yemen. At only age of 8, a child bride was married and had internal injuries that bad that she died the very same night she was married.
