Karnal keeps talking about a second case.
This is the second child marriage I'm talking about, FD, kindly referenced by the old boy.

Shame of our child brides: Court hears how woman was raped and beaten as it’s revealed hundreds are forced into arranged and unregistered marriages across NSW
A 14-YEAR-OLD girl was forced into an Islamic marriage with a western Sydney drug gang member who raped and beat her and later physically abused their daughter.
Details of the now 25-year old victim’s ordeal surfaced in the Federal Circuit Court where the victim was fighting to have the man banned from seeing their daughter.
So appalling was the woman's life of abuse, which included claims that her father told her she could only leave her marriage “in a coffin”, that Judge Joseph Harman made an unprecedented public appeal in his judgment for authorities to act.
The story came to light after the Daily Telegraph reported the arrest of a man who had been living with a 12-year-old as his wife in Sydney.
The imam who married the pair, Riaz Tasawar, was yesterday arrested by police.
...
Eman Sharobeem from the Immigrant Women’s Health Service said hundreds of children
as young as 11 were being sent overseas to be married after being “shopped” on Facebook. “It’s far more prevalent and well-known than people think,” she said.
Dr Sharobeem said not enough was being done to build awareness about underage marriage. “Regulation needs to be put in place within
different religions,” she said. “If we are talking about Australian law, every marriage should be under Australian law,”

The Tele reports this as an "Islamic" marriage, but no details have been provided of any actual marriage.
The girl was 14 at the time, and alledges that her "husband" was 21.
I've checked the few online news stories for more info, but no details of charges, pending convictions or any substantiated information has been provided. The information is based on the now 25 year old's testimony, submited to the Federal Circuit Court.
The Federal Circuit Court is not a criminal court. It's designed to be an alternative to litigation in the civil courts and the Family Court of Australia.
The headlines have shrieked:
EXCLUSIVE: THE husband of a 14-year-old who was repeatedly raped after a forced marriage looks set to escape punishment. I'm not sure of the legals here, but as far as I can see, these are allegations. I have no idea why the Herald Sun who published this "exclusive" have not written "alledgedly" repeatedly raped. It's possible that there are different reporting standards for civil cases as opposed to criminal cases.
Again, this "marriage" is an allegation by a litigant. From what I can tell, there are no criminal charges or convictions. The article says the woman is fighting to have her ex "husband" refused access to her child.
As the article says, the evil Muslim "husband" looks set to escape punishment. This means that there is either not enough evidence, or he is not guilty of underage marriage and rape. Both are serious crimes and would definitely be reported to police by a civil court or the victim herself if there was enough evidence to suggest guilt.
Interesting how the papers spin these things, don't you think? This case has been reported along with the other case to provide justification for the epidemic. No details have been provided, and the bi-line reads "it’s revealed hundreds are forced into arranged and unregistered marriages across NSW".
As we know, the "evidence" is self-reported census figures of non-Muslim underage defacto relationships, none of them forced or arranged.
Looks like we're back to evidence of ONE Muslim underage marriage in Sydney, but alas - the evidence so far suggests that that wasn't forced or arranged either.
One marriage down, FD, "hundreds" to go.
GUILTY.
