that a girl should be raped by the men of the village.
This was the considered verdict of The Court and the head man of the village.
The 20 year old girl had been having an affair with a man from a different community.
Her parents were too poor to pay the fine, which was the initial punishment -
so the court - "salisha sabha" a form of legal village court - sentenced her to be tied to a tree for more than 12 hour - and then to be raped by the men of the village.
This happened
She is alive - in hospital - but in a critical state, having lost a massive amount of blood.
She said that more than 5 men raped her. After that - she lost count. One of the men was the head of the village and others were those she knew well, and even some she called Uncle.
I would like to see all those men - including the ones who were members of the court who did not rape her - (if there were any) -have their testicles cut off. Then I would like to see all those men who raped her - have their penis cut off - with a rusty blunt knife.
And I would make sure that every man in the country knew - that was what lay in store for him if he orders or allows rape or if he commits rapes.
Enough is enough
