Pakistani motorcar stuntman Sultan Golden has dismissed reports accusing him of child marriage insisting that his wife is actually 19 years old and not 12 as it is being reported.
According to details, the 60-year-old Sultan Golden contracted marriage to Samreen Sehar in July but later it was revealed that his wife was actually just 12 years old at the time.

It was discovered that Samreen’s father Azizur Rehman had illicitly obtained fake birth certificate for his daughter from Sheshi Koh village council, after concealing her vaccination and school certificates which stated her date of birth as April 10, 2008.
Hence, on the basis of her false birth certificate, a National Identity Card [NIC] was issued by NADRA [National Database and Registration Authority] that facilitated the felonious Nikah ceremony.
Soon after the marriage ceremony occurred, the local civil authorities Chitral interfered into the matter after which the controversial birth certificate was corrected followed with cancelling the marriage contract of 12-year-old Samreen Seher with 60-year-old Sultan.
Reportedly, the investigation agencies had also requested NADRA to register a complaint against Sultan Golden and Samreen’s father Azizur Rehman, under the Nadra Ordinance 2000 for deceitfully obtaining CNIC on the basis of Fake birth certificate.
Moreover, Chitral Lower’s deputy commissioner had also contracted a medical board for physical examination of Samreen, to conclude her correct age and she was called on September 18th for the process. However, she never appeared in front of the organization as Sultan had secretly taken her out of the district.
Here to mention that Sultan Golden was strictly prohibited to leave Chitral until the final decision of court and his sudden illegal disappearance with Samreen enhances his unlawful actions. Currently, the case is fixed for hearing on October 24th and failure to appear ahead of court will result in legal actions against the duo.
