The continuos rape ........ ......
We, as a nation should be ashamed of ourselves for what happened to the hapless rape victim of Silakot; who was not only violated by the perverts who raped her but was also thoroughly humiliated by the custodians of the law. Her character, personality and her life was completely tarnished in the brief span of a moment. I would like to highlight some glaring points in this regard.First of all why did not the concerned authorities take immediate notice of this and why did they have to wait for a directive from President of the country, to take action. If this is not a travesty of justice, tell me what is? Then, why were the photographs of the poor girl splashed on the front page of the newspapers? Why don’t we show the ugly faces of the ones involved in this heinous crime. This is something beyond my comprehension; we profane the victims in our media but protect the identity of the rapists. -AASIM AYUB, via e-mail.
