Gang-rape of teenager ordered as punishment for brother's sins

[What Is Ain't]

A teenage girl was gang-raped in central Pakistan last month as "punishment" meted out by a tribal jury for her brother's alleged affair with a woman of a higher tribe, police said.

A Panchayat, or tribal jury, ordered four men, including one of the jurists, to rape the 18-year-old girl on June 22 in the village of Meerwala.

Meerwala lies 610 kilometres south-west of the capital Islamabad.

District police chief Malik Saeed Awan said authorities were informed of the publicly-ordered gang-rape several days after the incident.

He said four men took turns to sexually assault the girl inside a room. She was then ordered to return home naked before 1,000 onlookers.

The rape was to avenge the "insult" caused to a family of the Mastoi tribe by the girl's brother's alleged "illicit affair" with a woman of a higher social standing.

The girl and her brother were from the lower Gujjar tribe.

The Panchayat had threatened that all women in the accused's family would be raped unless the 18-year-old submitted herself to the public gang rape.

Awan said police were taking action against members of the Panchayat.

Lawyers visiting the tribal area on Sunday urged the authorities to prosecute the rapists and the jury.

A search on google for Panchayat leads me to believe that it may be Hindu. Anyone have anymore details?

Are the reports accurate or is it a cover for attacks on Hindus.

I'm seriously considering converting to this wonderful religion.

Amazing isn't it?

Using the power of (ahem, ahem.. AHEM!) "LAW" to engage in sex.

Wonderful.. Brilliant way for sexual deviants to carry on their activities and still hold their heads high in public.

"But, but.. I was ordered to screw that woman by the court"

LOL! Mere killing is too kind for these people.

Mohammedans are vile. They are lower than vermin. They should be treated as such.

< islam > The slut was asking for it < /islam > Of course, she will have to be executed for adultery now.

[AAABEST]

I'm seriously wondering if these half-apes have missed a step on the evolutionary stairway.

How is it possible that we still have "tribal leaders" ordering gang rapes? You would think that stuff like this went out with the bronze age.

What are you talking about?

CJ isn't an apologist for radical islam.

There is only one Satan and Muhammad is his Messenger.

Damnit! Where is that little "errant bomb" when you really need it?
Must be around somewhere...

You'd have to ask him/her directly when they get here, but I believe they are Muslims. We had it out on another thread because I refused to throw a tarp over my head and subject myself to abuse. That makes me a harlot apparently.

Of course, she will have to be executed for adultery now.

BWAHAHHAHA!

And I can see it proposed with a blinking, deadpan expression.

Completely serious, after all. This is "justice" we are talkin about here. Come On!

Have been reading " Unveiling Islam" and your statement is closer to the truth than you might imagine.

I bet these folks are hindu not Islamics. Hindu has a class system built in.

[Drew68]

Are the reports accurate or is it a cover for attacks on Hindus.

The Mastoi and Gujjar tribes are muslim.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

I have a friend who is a Hindu monk. I could not see Hindus doing this at all.

[crusher999]

Ok, let me get this straight....

In this country we prosecute rapists, and we are all Infidels....

In their country they sentence innocent girls to be raped, and they are "God's Chosen"....

Yep, makes sense to me.

[LowOiL]

Care to explain to me again how your beloved Islam respects and protects women?

I think you are barking up the wrong tree here... Why did you post the above to CJ ?

Thanks

LOL! No kidding.

Can't ya just see it.

"Your honor, the plaintiff seeks montiary damages and a shot at the defendants daughter. Both because the nature of the crime is psychologically damaging and cause she's got a real purty behind on her.."

The article clearly says Pakistani. It also specifically says the names of the tribes in central Pakistan.

This is not unlike the tribalism in Afghanistan. It is a true problem for the educated in Pakistan and the world at large.

HOLY COW!! I've seen this PIC about 5-6 times this is the 1st time I've noticed the woman is DEAD, I now see the puff of ground just in front of her made by the bullet after it traveled through her face tearing it off under her burka, exiting and going into the ground.
