I am so pleased for her - She is the most bravest of women actually no, she is the most bravest of men.
She was gang raped by 30 men for no fault of her own - her 12 year old brother happened to speak to a 20 year old girl in the fields. This was the crime she was punished for by the jirga (village council)
Being a Gujar (low caste), illiterate, 28 year old divorced woman to stand up to tribal,violent,backward Pakistani mentality - to defy the unwritten rule that after gang rape women must commit suicide requires absolute courage and great conviction.
She was a Hafiz-e-Quaran who learnt the Quaran by hear by word of mouth - read her book 'In the name of honour'.
You (we) girls are so privelleged that we do not have to live life in those bounds - I urge you all to give to her charity - The Mukhtar Mai Welfar Centre.
thanks !
