But later they decided to go with their Husbands.

According to the sources, the Supreme Court announced the verdict today which stated that the girls were old enough to make the right decisions themselves. The girls were asked to write their statements in the registrar office.

The three-member bench of Chief Justice (CJ) Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, Justice Khilji Arif Hussain and Justice Tariq Parvez, ordered the police to ensure the complete security of girls and said that in case of any problem police will be responsible.
