"Husband" arrested after enrolling 12y/o child bride in school & applying for welfare
AN alleged underage marriage was uncovered this week when a 12-year-old child bride and her 26-year-old husband tried to apply for spousal benefits, according to government sources.
Centrelink sources say the girl was removed from the home she shared with her 26-year-old "husband" hours after enquiring about what support would be available to a spousal visa holder on Wednesday morning.
Concerns also emerged after the man attempted to enrol the girl in a Western Sydney high school.
Newcastle Muslim Association president Bikash "Shahriar" Paul said the accused man was an "occasional" worshipper at a mosque in the Hunter Valley region north of Sydney, where he met the girl.
