HANG THE RAPIST : Horror and outrage in Pakistan as mother ‘gang-raped’ in front of children on highway .



Lahore motorway Pakistan, A mother of two kids on road side in car was allegedly gang raped. This incident occurred 2 days ago when the victim was travelling on motorway from Lahore to Gujranwala near gujarpura her car stopped due to running out of petrol. According to the victim as her car stopped she called motorway police for help, meanwhile two men came having sticks and guns with them, they broke the windows of the car and drag the victim along with her kids to nearby place and raped her in front of her kids, they also severely beat the woman and her children this is sheer brutality. Here the question arises as to what the motorway police were doing? When the victim called them why they were not available? Who is responsible for acts like these on motorway? Many people are saying that the petrol in the car should have been checked, so what if a car breaks down for any other reason , there could be any reason then what will you say? What will be your criticism then? Many others are saying that she should have travelled on GT road instead of the motorway and why she was travelling without a man? So what is the guarantee that GT road is safe and if a woman drive alone on GT road no one will touch her is their any rule or law like this? And one thing more is motorway built for men only? I have been watching and listening to all this since yesterday what nonsense, do you have any idea about this mother and her children infect the whole family what conditions are they going through? Is humanity completely extinct in this society? Neither children nor young people are safe here not even we can raise our voices about these animals. The guards go around with the rich, but who will protect the poor? It could all happen to us tomorrow, even we are not safe at our home, workplace, markets while travelling is this what a democratic and Islamic country means? According to a study carried out by Human rights watch there is a rape once every two hours, and a gang rape every hour this is just because the rapist are free to move to live to rape . This id a shame for a Muslim country. Should we keep our women and young girls in cages, because of these rapists? Or punish these animals so harshly and dreadfully that their next generations will remember. This is not the first case every day we are watching and listening these types of news on our televisions but their is also world outside this television too. Thousands of cases are happening everyday and we are not even aware of them. We should raise our voice for these oppressed people, who are going through all these. Where is the laws of our country? Where is the section 375 of Pakistan Penal code 1860? Who is this laws made for if no one is getting justice? We need justice they should be hanged openly in front of public this time so that more and more people can learn from this punishment and believe me that when such punishment are given, oppression will end automatically. If we study rape punishments of different countries, it does not seem that we are living in a Muslim country. The punishment for rape in Saudi Arabia is public beheading the rapist, in Afghanistan they shot the rapist in head or hang to death, in Egypt the punishment is death by hanging, in Iran too the punishment is death by hanging, in North Korea they shot the rapist. Like MUKHTARAN BIBI (survivor of gang rape and women rights activist) once again we should raise our voice and repeat her actions to seek justice.
