It is difficult to determine the exact number of juvenile marriages in Turkey as many go unreported or are unofficial "imam" (religious) ceremonies. "This makes the situation more problematic as they are not registered officially, making it difficult to track them," attorney Vildan Yirmibesoglu told SETimes.
Teško je ustanoviti precizan broj maloletničkih brakova u Turskoj, jer mnogi nisu prijavljeni ili se sklapaju na nezvaničnim „imam“ (verskim) ceremonijama. „To čini situaciju još problematičnijom, jer oni nisu zvanično prijavljeni, što otežava praćenje tih brakova“, kaže advokatkinja Vildan Jirmibesoglu za SETimes.
