Male chauvinism and an oppressed female is the vividly displayed elements of societal landscape, in Third world countries, and to some extent Western world too. Instances of such acts are countless in our society, what is in count is the unprecedented reaction of the people to the occasion. Another example of such uprising is the brutal murder of a young lad Shahzeb Khan in Karachi a few weeks ago. In both countries, there are protests in many different cities and demand for justice for the victims. In an otherwise so-called insensitive society like that in Pakistan, this time the civil society raised their voices against this particular mindset and its atrocities.
Whenever their happen such an incident, people in a knee-jerk reaction, blame the victim for not covering herself well, and set aside. (The Islamic injunction seems more ridiculous when the victim is a Non-Muslim). But this time its more than that. Once I saw a girl of not more than 5, raped followed by cut throat murder. What was the fault of that girl? I think, at times, its not just about parda or low-gazing or dress code of women. The need of the hour is, a) is the awareness in society, esp in women against such perpetrators and their mindset, b) adequate and proper measures should be enacted at every level for the highest punishment, not in words but also in practice.

The True Untold Story:
The title of the article is hideous. Not more so than the crime those animals committed. But as more details emerge about what transpired on the night of horror for the 23-year old medical student and her male friend, it becomes more and more clear that the men were remorseless and confident about not getting caught.Poor, drunk and armed with an arrogance that they could get away with it, we can now make an effort to understand, why did they rape her. The men have been identified as Ram Singh-the bus driver, Mukesh Singh-Ram's brother and a driver/helper,Vinay Sharma-an assistant gym instructor, Pawan Gupta- a fruit seller, Akshay Thakur-a driver/helper. The evening started out normally for the gang."Being Sunday, Ram and his helper had cooked a chicken dish and had a small party.They decided to go for a joyride and also make some quick money by giving lift to people so that they could buy some more liquor. Akshay then took out the vehicle and Vinay, Raju, another cleaner, and Pawan joined them for the ride. Finally, they left with Mukesh driving the bus. It was around 8.15 pm. They are all friends and live in the neighbourhood," police commissioner Neeraj Kumar told TOI. Clearly high on alcohol and armed with the fearlessness that only Delhi's cops can induce, the gang embarked on a joyride on the bus, intending to make some extra money on the way. Prior to picking up the victim and her friend, they had picked up a man from R K Puram and robbed him before throwing him out of the bus. Their first victim- Ramadhir Singh-a carpenter was picked up and ushered in under the pretext of dropping him off at his destination Nehru Place for Rs 10.Then,they forcibly took away Rs 7,500 and mobile phone from him and then threw him out of the bus near IIT Delhi around 8.45 pm. And here is the sad part. Had Ramadhir Singh reported the crime or called for help, there is a high probability that the gang rape that happenned just an hour later could have been prevented. And here is the sad part. Had Ramadhir Singh reported the crime or called for help, there is a high probability that the gang rape that happenned just an hour later could have been prevented. The accused then spotted the couple in Munirka and took them in. Once inside, the six men started passing lewd comments at her."The gang asked the couple why were they travelling so late. When the man told them not to bother and mind their own business, the men picked up a fight and the boy was hit on the head. The girl protested and fought with them to save her friend but was also hit. The girl even bit Ram Singh on his hand.When she resisted and bit his hand, Ram Singh got very angry. Alcohol and the victims' defiance, made him go berserk. He picked up a rod and hit the two everywhere. His accomplices followed suit," a source said. Her male friend was beaten up with iron rods and gagged near the driver's seat. Outraged by her defiance and in a bid to teach her a lesson, they then dragged the girl to a seat in the rear where they took turns to rape her.All this while, the bus roamed around Delhi roads. To cover up their tracks, Ram Singh, decided to strip the victims completely before throwing them out of the bus to leave no trace of incriminating semen or blood. He also kept their mobiles and switched them off.Dropping off the others before returning the bus to Noida,he tried to destroy evidence by washing the bus with confidence and told his accomplices to not worry, and lie low for some time. Ram Singh-the mastermind of this crime, came across as remorseless and cold during police investigations.A volatile man, he was known among friends as "Mental".His neighbours in the Ravidas slum where he lived, talk about his bad reputation and drinking problems. There's an accident case registered against him and he has admitted to being involved in several other brawls. He had also run away with a girl in his neighbourhood, sources said. Ram Singh is the perfect example of the type of anti-social elements that are capable of committing crimes and disregard rules of society. But did anybody discourage or punish this ticking time-bomb? No.The rapist-to-be would pick up schoolchildren at 8am and drop them before picking office goers in his bus as part of his day job as a driver. We can imagine a collective shudder of our readers after reading the last line. This man ferried around school children. Little kids. It is shocking the school authorities didn't run a background check on him. Otherwise an illiterate, aggressive man who had been involved in an accident before, would have never been allowed on the roads. This entire incident can be broken down into hypothetical sequences of what-ifs. What if she had not stayed out so late. What if she hadn't boarded the whiteline bus. But as we realized, the victim's choices had nothing to do with what happened to her afterwards. It was these men-these animals- who by the way should be hanged till death, and their overblown sense of masculinity that made them rape her. How dare she reacted to their taunts. How dare she spoke back and stood up to them. As mentioned, the tipping point came when she bit Ram Singh's hand in defiance and was subsequently raped as a punishment. Also, the shocking confidence of the accused-that he could get away with the crime is a sad testament of the state of lawlessness in Delhi. Why didn't the bus encounter a single police check-point during it's journey? More than what they didn't do at the night of the crime, it is what the Delhi police hasn't been doing for over a decade gave the rapists the brazen confidence to commit this crime. The police needs to send out a clear message to the men of Delhi. And they can use this incident as a starting point. Do not let this dissolve into a court case that takes 10 years to deliver justice to the wronged girl. Punish them and punish them hard, so that any animal would think twice before outraging the modesty of a woman. We hope somebody is listening http://www.indiatimes.com/india/delh...her-50805.html

A Spiritual leader revered across India has sparked outrage by claiming the Delhi gang rape victim was partly responsible for her own attack.
Hindu Asaram Bapu, 71, is reported as saying: "Only five-six people are not the culprits. The girl is as guilty as her rapists... She should have called the culprits brothers and begged them to stop... "This could have saved her dignity and life. Can one hand clap? I don't think so." Asaram, also known as Bapu Ji, further infuriated anti-rape campaigners by saying he was against harsher punishments in rape cases. Ravi Shankar Prasad, spokesman for the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), said Asaram's statement was "deeply disturbing and painful". The Hindu newspaper said it was "a disgrace when a man of religion stoops so low". But faced with the backlash, the holy man has dismissed those who criticise him as "barking dogs". He shot back: "Great people remain unaffected by what the common man says. "Elephants while taking a stroll do not bother about barking dogs." Asaram has faced repeated controversy in recent years. In 2008, a man who claimed tantric rituals and black magic were practised at the 71-year-old's ashram was gunned down in public. And the same year, seven followers from the same ashram were charged with murder over the death of two young cousins, aged just 10 and 11. The guru's latest remarks come as an entire nation remains in mourning for the death of the 23-year-old medical student, who was raped and assaulted with a metal rod on a city bus on December 16. The tragic woman was flown to Singapore for treatment to her catastrophic industries - partly induced when she was thrown naked from the moving vehicle - but later died. Five men have now been charged with rape and murder in the case which has sparked riots and calls for better rights for women across India. A sixth accused, who is 17, will be tried in a separate court for juveniles. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage...r-rapists.html

kindly use English while making replies/statements. Its quite difficult to read between the lines.! Perhaps instead of teaching only girls to fight for their rights, everybody might be taught about their responsibilities and obligations. Regards Quote:
I was trying to say that such people are also in abundance in our country, we should be specific and concerned about our country, our own people and our home first thn thinking for others. Yes you are right that its not a new thing and links to the era when humans began living at earth. And behavour/pattern to discriminate girls should be stopped and everybody (both girls and boys) should be educated well. Regards

The problem is not that why such social crimes occur, problem is that how to give exemplary punishments and prevent such crimes in future. What is the outcome of the investigation of famous Sialkot Road Hostess Case? Did you hear anything? Chief Minister visited her home, gave her 1 million cheque and assured that justice will be done .. then what happened? ofcourse nothing, all are busy at their business but one cannot imagine the mental stress and ordeal of that poor girl. so sad. If a woman wears such a dress which attracts men then what? Do they get the permit to rape her?
Did ever our leaders advise the youth to refrain from social evils/crimes such as taking liquor, eve teasing, woman harassment, bribery etc. They never emphasized on the society to lead a pious life, keep the morale high and never damage your character. Nah ! we just hear that Mr. X is corrupt, don't give him vote, we are introducing law on bla bla bla to prevent that bla. Courts have to deal with NRO, Asghar Khan Case, Mehrangate, Arsalan Case etc so no time for poor people, what if a poor girl is raped? We have to establish the rule of law in our country wherein all the citizens will be treated across the board. An authoritarian government with the right intentions can prevent all sorts of social evils/crimes within the limit of constitution. Where there will be no hypocrisy on the name of religion. Our young police officers/civil officers should come forward and take stern steps against the culprits regardless of their power. I assure the youngster officers that Allah will help you while discharging your duties righteously and Supreme Court will protect you. Just come forward and play positive role of your part by denying all sorts of political pressure.
