Los Angeles Times: "A tribal council in Pakistan's Punjab province ordered the betrothal of a 2-year-old girl to a man 40 years older to punish her uncle for an alleged affair with the man's wife, police said.
The Kacha Chohan village council decreed that the girl must marry 42-year-old Mohammed Altaf, her uncle's cousin, when she turns 18, police said. Altaf, a farmer, divorced his 32-year-old wife over her alleged affair with his 20-year-old cousin. "
