An SSC examinee named Tahmina Akter from Charakhali village in Indurkani Sadar Union, Jianagar upazila of Pirojpur, went to the local police station on Saturday to prevent her forced marriage. She sought police protection to avoid being married off before her upcoming SSC examinations. Tahmina, a student of Jianagar Government Setara Smriti Secondary Girls’ School, took shelter at the police station to stop what she described as a child marriage attempt by her family.
Local sources said her father, farmer Alam Hawlader, decided to marry her off due to financial hardship and the cost of her education. Tahmina stated that her father, brother, and sister-in-law were pressuring her to marry, but she wanted to continue her studies and sit for the SSC exams. Her classmates described her as a bright student and expressed hope that she would be able to continue her education.
Police Sub-Inspector Saidur Rahman confirmed that the girl was returned to her family after they signed a written pledge, witnessed by local elders, promising not to proceed with the marriage.
