330 cases in 4 months
by Sheetal Kaur on Apr 29, 2008 03:24 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

If all 4 months are taken as of 31 day(maximum days) then the total is 124 day.
At 330 rapes, which work out at average of 2.66 rapes a day.
Now that is a big figure.
What is the government doing and what is Police doing about all this.
Who is paying the Police or the officials In charge to turn a blind eye towards this crime.
Do we ever hear that the offenders have been caught and justice have been done.
NO all we read is statistics and no conclusion.
We don't hear about the offenders at all not even there names let alone pictures.
just victims face and name spread across the front page of news papers and bill boards.
Who is at fault here.
The top marks go to Police, Then the Government who make the law but do not ask questions wghy it is not working.
It is a big SHAME a slap on the face of government and Police females as young as 10 and as old as 60 are being raped and the law is not doing any thing about it, but just laughing in the face of the victim.

Please note that most of these cases are false and will be proved false in the due course of time. These are ONLY REPORTED FIGURES and NOT NECESSARILY CORRECT NUMBER OF RAPES. Please do go through the court orders in which most of the times it is observed that :

1. Most of the cases are registered by the complianant or agency in order to settle personal scores.

2. Second most reason is : when a girl / women gets caught in a relationship - she with the help of her family implicate her boyfriends / other man.

3. In most of the cases both boy and girl are involved willingly but when they fall out of love or agreement or whatever - the girl/women use Rape Law as weapon - much like the dowry law in India.

May be you are right but we are not talking about false acquisitions or what ever.
That is the job of the courts and the both the accused and the victim to prove them self innocent.
If a rape is reported and we go by your thoughts then all actual rapes will also be ignored.
We cant just go and say look girl you are just making it up because of XYZ reasons.
Shalini Lohumi (your name sounds of a female), try making a false statement and then get ignored or get raped and make a statement and be ignored see how you feel.
The rule of the law is that if a complain is filed it has to be folowed adnd brought to court where if the accused is innocent then he will be awarded justice according ly and accuser punished for wrong doings.
But if it is the other way around then th accused get punished.
Public is no one to judge any one or dish ot punishment.
