It is indeed very sad and also scary that in this day and age we still have such things happening.
Her family cannot in anyway for her to accept to get married with someone she does not want to marry. In my opinion this abusive, cruel and evil.
From a shar'i perspective, the marriage is batil and has no validity.
And Allah knows best.
