268 rape cases reported, 123 committed suicide! So almost half of the rape victims commit suicide! Horrific! What needs to be done here? And what does the minister mean when he says ‘due to Karo Kari no rape case was reported from the areas having tribal background’!!. Looks like the state govt. is helpless before tribes.

Re: Out of 268 rape victims 123 committed suicide...
Education is the most important way in which this situation can be helped. also empowerment of women and setting up support organizations for women in small towns to have a ring of support in order to discourage suicide after rape and to encourage speaking out about the crime. the men in society need education that must begin at home and continue at school about what respect for a woman really means. they need to be taught that a woman **is to be respected and **not some piece of cloth.
Re: Out of 268 rape victims 123 committed suicide...
in my world the punishment would be. Tie the man with rope strip naked and give a knife to a girl he raped. Now she can chop off anything she wants. If she cant goverment will chop off 1 ball and if he does it again 2nd and if he is a real retard does it again he will lose the final part... NOW he cant do a dang thing.
something simple as death should not be given to them. I like torture

Anyway, carry on this inane discussion of what should be done to the rapists...when the solution is staring you in the face...Death...that is the only cure for the rapists and sex offenders, there is no way around it.
