A very sad narration indeed. Triumphs to Haseena and Jannat for surviving in such brutal conditions.

Guys who beat their wives are pathetic, and not men but hijray.

``Men are the managers of the affairs of women for that God has preferred in bounty one of them over another, and for that they have expended their property. Righteous women are therefore obedient, guarding the secret for God`s guarding. And those you fear may be rebelliou admonish, banish them to their couches, and beat them. If they then obey you, look not for any way against them; God is all-high, all-great.`` [ The Koran 4:34 -[i]Arberry[/i] ]

Shandana
A touching story - this life goes on in every other poor and low middle class home.
Frankly I do not see a light at the end of the tunnel. Religion mixed with medieval customs makes a deadly potient.
We have to begin at the very top - rename ourselves as the Democratic Republic of Pakistan instead of Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
I feel guilty of beating my own country with a stick every time - but I can not help it.

Tipu ji
Would you still feel Pakistan would be ideal for you and your women??
Or you would you like your India a bit more now?

reality.this is not happening only in pakistan,but also in india.parents are also responsiable for all these miseries.ist daughter was not happy with that wrestler,why they marry the second one.
poverety and illiteracey are the two main cause.no government can protect them.people themselves have to evolve some stratgeies to tackle it.apart from the miseries after marriages,there are so many child abuse cases.
dadi jan is abusing 11 year girl a nd mother is neither accepting nor responding this criminal act.so there is no end to all these miseries and nosolution.i think so .what other say .i don``t know.

What is so painful as Shandana`s reportage makes clear, is that whole villages were condoning the abuse of these wives and sons. Everyone says they were afraid- I dont know how much of that to believe-it takes courage to face that kind of evil.
The criminals that the Haseena and Jannat married should be serving terms in prison for physical and emotional torture. But really, these animals are just extreme versions of their family and villagers who condone the abuse of women. And these people should be held accountable as well.
