Sudan's government faces growing pressure to overturn a death sentence handed down to a young woman. Noura Hussein was forced into marriage at 15, but managed to avoid it for three years while living with another family member. Her lawyer says when Noura refused to consummate the marriage -- her husband raped her. When he tried it again the following day -- she stabbed him to death. We asked our panel: how can forced marriage -- especially when children are involved -- be prevented? Taking part: Nima Elbagir -- CNN Senior International Correspondent, Liam Halligan
