Mukhtaran Mai vows to continue her mission
Gang rape survivor Mukhtaran Mai, who had to wait five years for the Supreme Court’s verdict in her case, has lost faith in the justice system.
Women protection a low priority in Pata
DESPITE the passage of over four years, the law commonly known as Women Protection Act (WPA) is yet to be extended to the Provincially Administered Tribal Areas (Pata) due to which the Offence of Zina (Enforcement of Hudood) Ordinance, 1979, is applicable in these areas in its original form.
Mai will appeal against SC decision
MEERWALA: Rape victim Mukhtaran Mai said on Sunday that she would challenge the Supreme Court decision to dismiss her appeal against the early release of five men convicted of abusing her.
Will Mukhtaran Mai ever get justice?
It is tempting, when hearing that five of the six men accused of raping Mukhtaran Mai have had their acquittals upheld by the Supreme Court, to see the verdict as the latest in a long line of indignities forced upon her. Mukhtaran Mai has endured government scorn and apathy with grace and has been an inspiration to millions. If anyone deserved justice, it is her.
