Mukhtar Mai wed a policeman who is still married to another woman. He threatened to divorce his first wife if she did not marry him. Ms Mai said she decided to do so to avoid family break-up.

"Eighteen months ago, he sent his parents to ask me if I would marry him. I declined because I knew he was already married and I didn't want to ruin his first wife's life," Mukhtar Mai told the BBC Urdu service.
Nasir Abbas did not take his rejection well and "threatened to divorce his first wife. He also tried to commit suicide", Mukhtar Mai says.
His sisters are married into his first wife's family - and in a tit-for-tat move they were threatened with divorce too if Nasir Abbas divorced his first wife.
Nasir Abbas's first wife and his two sisters approached Mukhtar Mai and pleaded with her to marry Nasir Abbas. "So I married him on humanitarian grounds. I didn't want three families breaking up because of me," she says.

Re: My Hero got married
I am so pleased for her - She is the most bravest of women actually no, she is the most bravest of men.
She was gang raped by 30 men for no fault of her own - her 12 year old brother happened to speak to a 20 year old girl in the fields. This was the crime she was punished for by the jirga (village council)
Being a Gujar (low caste), illiterate, 28 year old divorced woman to stand up to tribal,violent,backward Pakistani mentality - to defy the unwritten rule that after gang rape women must commit suicide requires absolute courage and great conviction.
She was a Hafiz-e-Quaran who learnt the Quaran by hear by word of mouth - read her book 'In the name of honour'.
You (we) girls are so privelleged that we do not have to live life in those bounds - I urge you all to give to her charity - The Mukhtar Mai Welfar Centre.
