On the second day of 2019, two incidents of violence against young girls were reported. An underage girl (16 years) arrived yesterday to Halba Government Hospital suffering from severe stomach pain, according to Al Mustaqbal newspaper today. Examination revealed that the teen was 9 months pregnant and subsequently gave birth, Al Mustaqbal wrote. The girl who lives with her aunt in Ain el Dahab, Abdeh in Akkar, was apparently not married and has admitted that the father of the baby was her aunt’s husband. Meanwhile, on the same day, Al Mustaqbal reported that a South Police Investigation Patrol arrested a Palestinian national (23 years) in Taamir neighborhood of Ain el Hilweh Camp in Saida for blackmailing a girl by threatening to post her photos and force her to steal. The man, who was found to be a former suspect for fraud and theft was handed over to New Saida Police Station. (Al Mustaqbal, January 3, 2019)
