Last month, when the whole state was widely debating the marriage of underage Muslim girls following a controversial government circular, a 10-year-old girl of a tribal colony here was married off to a 24-year-old youth.
Sindhu (name changed), a class III student and member of Kattupaniya tribe, of Vettilakolli colony at Kakkadampoyil, bordering Kozhikode-Malappuram districts, was forced to enter into wedlock with Biju of an adjacent tribal settlement.
