The Mossos d'Esquadra have prevented the excision and forced marriage of three sisters residing in the Lleida region of La Segarra, two of them minors.
As Segre has advanced and confirmed by the ACN, the events occurred in June and are recorded in the record of this type of case in the whole of Catalonia in the last quarter.
