‘The buyer does not want to marry’
In this context, the human rights activist Ayman al-Hamiri explained, in an interview with Al-Hurra, that “Lemon’s father did not seek the help of charities or humanitarian organizations to pay his debts, but rather sold his daughter , who does not care about her, “and added that” in the Yemeni countryside, the female has no value because she does not bear the father’s last name, so he marries her at age ten or even sells her. “
He added that “Lemon is not the first there is and many others”, noting that “no marriage contract has been organized but an official sale, because the buyer does not want to make her his wife and the legal effects that are derived, but wants enslave her to do housework, according to the logic of the Middle Ages. “
He concluded by saying that “protecting the girl, Lemon, is taking her out of Yemen, and she is not the last to be sold, but she is the only one whose history we learn.”
“The man has the right to sell the woman and determine her destiny.”
For her part, the Yemeni activist Ahlam Jarban, living in France, considered that “what happened is considered a natural product of an ugly reality in which Yemeni women live”, considering that “the incident is not the first nor the last, since human trafficking is one of the most prominent vestiges of wars, ignorance and poverty ”.
