To run tradition called Leblouh, the girls are sent to fattening camps during school holidays. Leblouh an attempt by the locals to find potential suitors for their daughters.
"Woman's weight determines how much space in the heart of her husband. So, to make sure there is no other woman in the hearts of men, women were sent to the camp for the cattle to gain weight," said Mint Ely, driver of women's rights in Africa, as reported Odditycentral .
It's a little unnerving to imagine children aged 5,7, and 9 years old were forced to consume 20 liters of camel's milk. This tradition is usually done during the school holidays or rainy season when milk is plentiful.
Fatima M'Baye, child rights advocates, and even feel sad, if you know what the locals to fatten their daughters. Those who refuse to eat would be subjected to torture. One of them was sentenced zayar.
The sentence was carried out by clipping the two sticks on either side of the toe. If a child refuses to eat or drink, camp officials would push the stick simultaneously. It's painless abysmal.
If successful, this fattening process will make a child 12 years old have a body weight of 80 kg.
"If a child is vomiting, he even had to take it back. Fact, at the age of 15 years, he would look like 30 years," said Fatima who also did not approve the existence of ritual abuse.
