We're Going to the McDonald's Playpen for Our Honeymoon

According to the English Al Jazeera News Network:

Pakistani police have raided an illegal child wedding in the city of Karachi, arresting the children's parents and the Muslim cleric carrying out the ceremony.

A court freed the parents on bail on Saturday, a day after police raided the wedding ceremony between a seven-year-old boy and a girl aged five.

The parents said the wedding had been arranged to end an eight-year feud between the two families.

Marriage below the age of 18 is illegal in Pakistan.

Some Muslim scholars believe marriage is permissible between children if the bride and groom have reached puberty.
