Safety of Women ???

[upendersingh]

Upender thanks for the research. Isolated incidents apart, over all scenario in KL is not as bad as in India. Ladies can move around upto late in the evening without being victims of vulgarity, molestation, hijacking rape etc. I have noticed people usually do not stare or make lewd remarks even on exceptionally beautiful girls dressed up in the ultra modern & short attires. They would simply have an innocuous glimpse and turn their eyes away. At the most someone would hurl a gentle smile out of courtesy. But in India, the picture is entirely different including the capital city - registered cases notwithstanding. Sex-starvation is writ large on people's faces. Herds of wild beasts (cheap brand Romeos) are always on the hunt and leave no opportunity to target ladies starting from the age group of 4 to 55.
Cannot speak for the whole world but after having traveled to about more than 30 odd countries (some of them more than 5-10 times), I have realized that India is one of the worst places I have ever visited, for ladies as far as their safety is concerned.

I agree upon mostly of your abovementioned points, sir. But also would like to say that sometimes where we live, it may be possible that all is well there, but it doesn't mean that all is well everywhere. In my whole life I have never seen any raped girl. It's another thing that I watched in t.v. or I read in newspaper that some girl has been raped, but I have not seen with my eyes. It means rate is quite low. One more thing if any girl/woman is out of home in morning and returns in evening without being stared, being teased (lightly though), then she may be in pensive mood 'what is wrong?' Girls/women also do it. If one doesn't rub his soldier with them, then they (females) will do so. If any boy/man is passing by a group of girls/women, he may have to experience some naughty comment from that group. Mostly guys here will accept this fact. Though I am not supporting this staring and soft teasing etc. things, but I am talking about the facts. Actually the bad thing is to take extreme step such as rape, molestation etc.
I am not trying to prove you false. I am just sharing the thoughts and I hope you will not mind it as nothing is personal in it. I just went deeper to know the state of Malaysian women and I found this:

...........................................................................................................................................................................................
Malaysia is a destination, supply and transit point for women and children trafficked for commercial sexual exploitation. Women and girls from Burma, Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam are trafficked to Malaysia. Malaysia is a transit country along with Indonesia, Philippines and Thailand in Chinese human trafficking. Women from Malaysia are trafficked into the People's Republic of China. Migrants from countries in the region work as domestic servants and laborers in the construction and agricultural sectors and face exploitative conditions.
Between 2005 to September 2009, more than 36,858 women were arrested for prostitution in Malaysia.

Woman flogged for drinking a beer in Malaysia
Virginia Haussegger


March 1, 2010

• 

Muslim model Kartika Sari Dewi Shukarno, who was sentenced to be caned for drinking beer, sits with her children Muhammad, 7, left, and Kaitlynn, 5, at her father's home in Karai, north of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Friday, Aug. 21, 2009


If my women friends lived in Malaysia, and we happened to be Muslim, we'd – with a few exceptions – be badly battered and bruised. Our bodies would be red raw from constant thrashing. I wonder if we'd wear those lashing marks with pride. Or would the pain and humiliation of official caning eventually break our spirit, and reduce us to a pitiful submission?
The humiliation certainly got to 32-year-old Kartika Shukarno. Last year when the former model and mother of two was sentenced to a flogging for the crime of drinking a beer in a nightclub, she asked them to get on with it. As the judge in the Syariah High Court read out her sentence – six strokes of the rotan and a three-year jail term or hefty fine – he explained that the caning would make the accused ''repent and serves as a lesson to Muslims''. Kartika bowed her head, kept calm, and after withdrawing her appeal said, ''I will accept this earthly punishment, let Allah decide my punishment in the hereafter''.

Very well said my friend although i reply late but really do you really think its that mach easy to blame, do you really know only 55% of Girls files cases of such incidents and in these also many ive up in procedding, and what if we just blame without thinking of law, aap janthe h, agar ik ladki legal process ka misuse ya use kare, toh uske liye kisi bhi person ko jail karana easy ho, i very well understand the problem of Topic but truly speaking blaming judiciary or Police or society is very easy the problem need solutions as form of suggestions and not allegations on these thinks, is banglaro is safe for Girls ,or UP does not have such crime,

Dear Arun,

Please refer to the portion of ur reply which is highlighted. You have clearly brought out the lacunae in the legal hassle. You have thus amply extracted the need to cut down on proceedings, ease of misuse and time.

A worthy member earlier has also brought how the quick prosecution in the hands of police commissioner did bring down the incident of crimes against females in Mumbai.

That brings us out closer to my argument about police and legal reforms.

regards,
I

Ramesh g words are really very strange in nature, you know its not the legal proceeding or delay or other things which make the victim to suffer a lot but we have to follow such process because what she is alleging is put someone behind the bar for a long time, from police to society evryone thinks its the process which has drawbacks,why not the society be sympathize with the victim and let her live in society, i also have sympathy for her but if she want justice then she has to be that much tuff, agar Law isse jyada lenient hota h ,then b prepared to face the situation where some girl demand for rensom else she make false allegation of rape and instead of checking or knowing the truth of allegation u or i or anyone else rest in Jail and wait that when again law changes.
