The elders are busy in their so called old disputes for ages and after that they sit together and find the solution of becoming a family. If we see the law and the tradition over here we will realize one think that there is a need of independent courts to enforce the law, but when the judiciary in a country is suspended by military dictators and independent courts are not welcomed by many countries. The only way to discourage this practice is to restore the judiciary. This practice is very common in the rural areas, normally the children fall victim to this unfair and bad practice.
