Morocco protest against rape-marriage law

Several hundred women's rights activists have demonstrated outside Morocco's parliament to demand the repeal of a law on sexual violence.

Morocco's penal code allows a rapist to marry his victim if she is a minor as a way of avoiding prosecution.

A 16-year-old girl, Amina Filali, killed herself a week ago after being severely beaten during a forced marriage to her rapist.

The protesters held signs saying, "The law has killed Amina".
