Death for Rapists

This is an interesting article I just found that claims India is considering making rapists elligible for the death penalty. I'm not sure if it's from this year or not because it just says Oct 4th.

Aren't you going to ask what she was wearing?

It's ok I found one on my own http://ncw.nic.in/

Adultry and rape are not the same! I NEVER said a woman should be blamed for being raped.

Maybe some just saw it that way because of of theri blatant hatred of muslims!

A mother of four has been driven out of her village in Murshidabad district by a Muslim panchayat after being allegedly raped by a local man three months ago.

The panchayat ruled that her marriage stood annulled in the wake of the incident and that she could neither live with her husband nor enter the predominantly Muslim village, which is about 200 km from Kolkata.

The village council ruled that the couple should pay Rs 50,000 if they wished to stay together, a condition which the victim's husband, a daily wage labourer, failed to meet.

The victim, who was raped on July 25 in Katabagan village, filed a case at the police station in Behrampur on Friday following the intervention of Superintendent of Police Rahul Srivasatava.

The local police had earlier refused to register a case.

In her complaint, the woman accused Mansoor Ali, a local thug, of raping her in front of her four children.

"I want to keep my wife as it is not her fault, but people are not allowing me to keep her. Who will look after our four children?" her husband added.

His family was opposing his wife's stay in the house after the incident and the matter was taken up by the panchayat of the village.

Also, her stepmother prevented her from entering her father's house.

The panchayat also imposed a fine of Rs 18,000 on the rapist. He did not pay the fine.

Horrible...and sad that it so common in rural areas. And it's sad that there aren't more people willing to help women such as these even in the cities there.

Yes, muslim men are notorious for being unable to control themselves when presented with uncovered meat hair.

um yes you did

How is date rape not a crime of violence and control?

How is it not about sex if they were on their way to it to begin with and then she suddenly changes her mind?

I'm not excusing men for their actions... they should still be punished BUT I think it's partly the woman's fault too. She shouldn't have been in that position to begin with . FYI... dating is against my beliefs.... this could be a good reason why.

how about here, blaming the victim?

All I'm saying is maybe women should take some responsibility about the way they dress and behave... it's strange to me to see that advise met with such disdain.

I didn't think this article was about "date rape" If it is then I'm sorry... maybe she shouldn't have been alone on a date with him.

I thought this article was about a woman minding her own business and some man forced himself on her.

We were talking about adultry not rape.

I'm sure your wife enjoys you mocking her father/brothers/uncles/cousins/etc with this comment about muslim men.

Daniel

:energetic:

you're sounding like a republican, daniel

Its just convenient, sheep in wolfs clothing

so you are saying repubs are wolves?

Daniel

:energetic:

Repubs can be wolves when need be! But as you can see by the posts of dems they just have an overwhelming need to lay down and get sheared. Please see picture of Bush giving John Kerry a hair cut. look! he is not even fighting it. What will this sheep most likely do when his hair cut is complete yep, you guessed it .............RUN like HE$$

by the way where is good old Johnny boy?

No, I wasn't....see below...

In Saudi where women don't walk around half nude rape is not nearly as rampant as it is here... women are respected, honored and protected and when a rape does occur the man is punished severly.

this comment implies your belief in a direct correlation between women's dress and rape. So stick that in your pipe and smoke it

Maybe some just saw it that way because of of theri blatant hatred of muslims!

is that chip on your shoulder particularly heavy? Might wanna set it down or else you'll hurt yourself!
