suspicion of a separate inchdent of robbery and grievous bodily harm

:02:00.:02:01.

with intent, which occurred on Thursday, 8 May at the s`me

:02:02.:02:04.

The police said Tom Rogers's family is being kept informed

:02:05.:02:09.

And they are still keen to hear from anyone who may have bedn

:02:10.:02:12.

School children from across Gloucestershire have been fhnding

:02:13.:02:22.

out about forced marriage today The act was made illegal earlier this

:02:23.:02:25.

month ` and now experts want everyone to be able to spot the

:02:26.:02:28.

signs to help make it a thing of the past. Last year, there were more

:02:29.:02:31.

than 1300 cases of suspected forced marriage in the UK ` more than 00

:02:32.:02:35.

were in the South West. 15% involved a child being forced into a marriage

:02:36.:02:38.

they didn't want ` the vast majority of cases involved girls or women.

:02:39.:02:42.

We see forced marriage as vdry much part of domestic abuse, gendrally.

:02:43.:02:45.

It's very much the focus and energy of Gloucester Constabulary `t the

:02:46.:02:48.

moment to raise the profile and status of domestic abuse. To make

:02:49.:02:51.

sure it's not tolerable. We don t tolerate it,

:02:52.:02:53.

Earlier I spoke to Jasvinder Sanghera, who's been campaigning for

:02:54.:02:59.

years for more to be done to protect people who are being forced to

:03:00.:03:03.

marry. Her sister was so unhappy in her marriage she committed suicide,

:03:04.:03:06.

and Jasvinder herself ran away from home.

:03:07.:03:12.

This was presented to me as an arranged marriage and it was

:03:13.:03:16.

As a result of that, my family to go out of educ`tion.

:03:17.:03:20.

I was held a prisoner in my own home at the age of 15 1/2,

:03:21.:03:24.

I ran away from home when I was 16 years old and my family reported him

:03:25.:03:31.

I had two choices, as far as my family were concerned.

:03:32.:03:35.

I either came home and marrhed today said, or from this day forw`rd,

:03:36.:03:38.

Subsequently, I have been disowned for over 35 years.

:03:39.:03:47.

How difficult is that, to break that cycle?

:03:48.:03:52.

You said you ran away, but culturally it must be difficult

:03:53.:03:57.

Extremely difficult because your family make yot feel

:03:58.:04:02.

guilty, ashamed, and my pardnts were Sikh and made me believe I was

:04:03.:04:05.

a bad Sikh, going against my culture, religion and tr`dition.

:04:06.:04:09.

And of course hese things were not true.

:04:10.:04:12.

Nowhere in any faith does it say you can support forced marrhage

:04:13.:04:15.

But as a young person, thesd were my parents, I loved them de`rly

:04:16.:04:20.

They made me feel like I was the perpetrator who had

:04:21.:04:24.

It took me a long time to own being a victim.

:04:25.:04:28.

What do you think about this change in the law?

:04:29.:04:31.

I'm extremely supportive of the change in the law, bdcause,

:04:32.:04:37.

35 years ago as a 14`year`old girl, I could not say to my familx,

:04:38.:04:40.

For the first time, today in England and, a victim can now own this

:04:41.:04:46.

Professionals dealing with this can place it firmly within the law and

:04:47.:04:50.

not be misguided and thinking that somehow this is part of our culture.

:04:51.:04:53.

So, a victim is more likely to get the right response and be bdlieved.

:04:54.:05:00.

What do you think about schools taking up this issue?

:05:01.:05:05.

I have to say, schools are at the heart of prevention.

:05:06.:05:10.

The disappointing thing is that nationally, we're not seeing a

:05:11.:05:12.

We are still having ad hoc schools doing this.

:05:13.:05:17.

There are many more schools out there and we need them to engage.

:05:18.:05:21.

We need a national programmd of engagement

:05:22.:05:22.

Thousands of people have bedn pouring out of the Glastonbtry

:05:23.:05:38.

Festival throughout the day. For four days the crowds have rocked to

:05:39.:05:41.

the sounds of everything from Dolly Parton to Metallica. The ro`ds

:05:42.:05:44.

:05:45.:05:47.

170,000 revellers left the site after another year of the world

:05:48.:05:49.

plan. There were more showers than
