The legal age for marriage in Turkey has been raised to 17 from 15, however the commission members said that the limit should be increased to the majority age of 18.
Istanbul bar's women commission head Nilüfer Ay said that the increase in the number of child brides showed the lack of awareness of women's place in society.
