Answer
(Fatwa: 1554/1306=L/1429)
In the abovementioned case, if there were three other persons except the girl and the Nikah procedure was made in their presence then the Nikah is valid. If the two want to continue the Nikah they can do so. But, they are advised to inform their family members about their Nikah so that they can formally meet with the consent of family members.
