Multicultural Britain: More Than 100 Children May Have Been Forced Into Marriage

More than 100 children aged 12 or under were referred to the British government’s Forced Marriage Unit between 2021 and 2025, new Home Office figures show.

The figures include 27 children aged five or under.

Dame Jasvinder Sanghera, a campaigner who escaped a forced marriage when she was 14, described the number of very young children as “deeply disturbing.”

She warned that some children could disappear from school because they had been taken away for a forced marriage.

The student was not authorized to be working with the compound and it was not part of his research, according to school officials.
