She was lured to Pakistan with a promise of love, then allegedly forced to marry
A Spanish woman was rescued from Pakistan after allegedly being deceived into travelling there, having her passport confiscated and being forced into a marriage with a cousin.
A woman from Spain was allegedly deceived and forced to travel to Pakistan for the purpose of marriage, according to Spanish police. She was lured with the promise of love and a family connection, but once in Pakistan, her passport was confiscated, and she was confined and forced to marry her cousin against her will. The woman's partner reported her abduction to the police in April, and he had previously been attacked by two men allegedly linked to the case.
Spanish police, in collaboration with Spain's embassy in Pakistan, managed to locate and rescue the woman, returning her to Spain where she received specialized support. The incident remains under investigation as authorities work to identify all those involved in the forced marriage and the attack on her partner.
