....News reports like this:

news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/7815896.stm

(Unpleasant content.)

I realise how naive I am. I just wouldn't have thought in a million years that this sort of thing goes on.

That s shocking

PaulaatMummyKnowsBest · 09/01/2009 16:48

poor girl.

Isn't it awful that something like that can still happen in the 21st century?

How horrific. Poor poor girl.

We are so so so so so so so lucky to have been born where we have been. And it was a pure fluke!

they must have been mentally deranged to have done that, wherever they're from

how barbaric and just plain horrible poor girl

GivePeasAChance · 09/01/2009 17:01

Purely cultural pressure IMO. Nothing to do with being 'insane'

Poor child; as if being raped wasn't bad enough, to then be treated like that BY YOUR MOTHER.

We really are very lucky here.

whitenoise · 09/01/2009 17:02

that doesn't just happen in south asia. AM pretty sure i read a report of a similiar thing in UK

I feel sick. So much for the sanctity of human life. Which religion alows the murder of a baby? Hope the girl survives and the buggers get thrown in jail. Of course, they probably won't, nor will the rapist. I shudder to think what 'justice' the local court will hand out.

Poor girl

TheCrackFox · 09/01/2009 17:04

Bloody hell that is awful.

On a positive note the man accused of raping her has been arrested, which, for Afghanistan is a step forward.

Yes, but we are talking about a part of the world where 'justice' is sending a gand of the raped girls relatives around to rape one of the accused relatives. Either way, the women suffer.
