Rape Does Not Alter the Victim’s Status!
Posted by thomaskmathai Aug 14, 2005 07:36 pm
Vijendra,
I had written something in haste and while reading I felt it conveyed negative thoughts about women. You have done a great job in highliting the plight and trauma of the rape victims. Rape becomes news when the animals are on the loose and infants, under age girls, invaids, mentally challenged become victims. Even the dead and octageneraians are not spared.
In Mumbai a similar creature was discovered in the uniform of a law enforcer. The only way to punish the rapist is to `hang them by the neareast lamp post` or incarcerate them in solitary confinement for ever.
In most other cases the crime does not get reported and the victim suffers in silence because the perpetrator is a relative or known closely to the victim. It is necessary to know why the intuition and defense of the victim has failed her. -Thomas
