    As a native kyrgyz, I must say that the kidnapper knows the victim very well, unlike the victim of his kidnapper. And in general, kygryzs little nazi nation, they don’t even steal girls from other nationalities, although there are a lot of them in my country, the Kyrgyz make up 70% of the population of Kyrgyzstan. This means that tourists will never be kidnapped, and this has never happened before in the entire existence of Kyrgyzstan. For tourists, kyrgyzstan is as safe a country as the countries of northern europe.

    I saw another video the girl was kidnapped and after a hours agreed to marry the man by not removing the scarf/veil his family put on her head to see if she agrees. One even said if a man propose the girl will say no even if she wants to become if she says yes they will think she is desperate so a no is an innocent yes? Even the girls friend helped the men to kidnapp them both like they wanted to be kidnapped. It's disturbing how this exists and makes those who doesn't want to get kidnapped in dangerous situations

    The term kidnapped seems right in this situation. These girls shouldn't be sold off at such a young age just because they are young and vulnerable and are not able to fight back the 'tradition'. I hope the situation settles and no more females have to suffer there.
