A Western New York father has been arrested on charges he conspired with his son to force his daughter into an arranged marriage in Yemen.
Khaled Abughanem, 50, and Waleed Abughanem, 32, both of Lackawanna, NY, were arrested and charged with conspiracy to kidnap persons in a foreign country. The charge carries a maximum penalty of life in prison.
The woman, identified only as Victim 1, had run off to Mexico in September 2021 to get married before her family returned her against her will to the United States. "According to Victim 1, from on or about September 10, Victim 1 was under constant threat of harm, restricted to the Abughanem residence, and not allowed to leave or have any contact with anyone except family," the complaint said.
According to investigators, Victim 1 did not know her family planned to traffic her to Yemen for the forced marriage. During her confinement she was forced to take a "virginity test" and was thrown into the stairs by her father, according to the complaint.
