Horrific cases of 2018 rapes in the world

in #life7 years ago

Hello my good people of steemit, have you ever wonder what you will tell your creator if you will meet him tomorrow? I just it is not on everyone's mind. I come to you today with a very sad topic, very annoying topic, but just sit back relax and come with me on a ride with this great topic of Rape. As we all know you will wonder why rape occur in our society, some do it for rituals, while some do it for pleasure. Some days back it was reported that a Nigerian man raped a girl of 8 months, 8 months, you could imagine why some one will do that for pleasure, or for ritual. We've barely begun the new year and our hearts are already sinking with reports of rape and assault towards women and little girls in the world. The horrors continue and we watch each case with a disappointed familiarity.

These stories just reinforce our fears of living in a country where personal safety feels like a privilege rather than a right. Here are some of the rape cases that have been reported in 2018 alone:

It was a usual day for this girl when she left home for her tuition class. She had been expected to finish her lessons by 8 PM. Missing from classes and unreachable, her worried father filed a missing person's report two hours later, only to discover his daughter lifeless, mutilated and dumped somewhere. Doctors who performed her post-mortem confirmed she had been raped by more than two men and that an object was forced into her vagina.

"Her liver was found ruptured. The injuries were all around the body, on the face, neck, lips and chest. It appears that the victim had struggled a lot to escape from the sexual assault,” reports The Sun.

The State of World Population Report suggests that In India

  1. A Rape is committed every 54 minutes;
  2. Molestation every 26 minutes;
  3. Kidnapping or abduction every 43 minutes;
  4. Eve-teasing every 51 minutes;
  5. Dowry death every 1 hour 42 minutes;
  6. Criminal offense against women every 7 minutes.

Rape is a crime not only against the body of an individual but also against one’s mind, psyche and reputation. The rapist can be questioned only if he is caught but the raped is questioned at every stage by every strata of the society. The victims have experienced that the police is often reluctant to lodge their complaints. Even if the complaint is lodged, the justice is far from being delivered. In courts circumstantial evidence is highly relied upon. The defense always supports the theory that the intercourse was with mutual consent.

Hmmm what a world we leave in

Thank you for these statistics. It really puts in in perspective.

I think it is important more people talk about issues like these. I also think we need to switch how we teach rape. Instead of telling our children don't get raped we need to teach them not to rape and the importance of consent. Also that you can be raped by someone close to you as well.. That if you are in a long term relationship or marriage consent isn't a given. You still need to get consent even from your closest loved one.

That is a very nice thought of you. And also punishment of a rapist suppose to be death
