Her resplendent white dress says it's her wedding day, but the sadness etched on her face does not.
For
this teenage bride has been forced to marry an ally of Chechen warlord
Ramzan Kadyrov after apparently being threatened with kidnap if she did
not comply.
Kheda
Goilabiyeva, 17, looked despondent and at one point wept during the
ceremony in the Chechen capital Grozny as the fearsome Kadyrov watched
on from the crowd.
She
was asked three times whether she wanted to marry 47-year-old police
chief Nazhud Guchigov – who already has another wife – before finally
and reluctantly responding yes.
