Honor killings are a one way street.
Man kills wife for advocating for women's rights? Halal. Allah approved.
Two girls enact revenge on their rapist? Absolutely Haram!
Iunno I feel like Indian women as a power block is pretty massive. Like half a billion people or something.
Seems fair enough.
legalize setting rapists on fire
I agree. I think that would be a good deterrent for rapists.
Ancient problems require ancient solutions 💪
"A medieval device for a medieval act."
(The quote I've only seen in viral images, not in any verifiable news sources, but it's memorable and relevant regardless)
If he wasn't okay with being set on fire, his body has ways of shutting down things like that.
Are they selling merch?
Their mothers, both married to the deceased man, ...
Because of course.
Idk, I feel like the problem here is that the late piece of shit dad's a rapist, not the polygamy.
He shouldn't have been able to get a wife, let alone two.
Yeah. It's a sick world we live in.
So many women are just cool with abuse.
Their mothers, both married to the deceased man, were aware of the alleged abuse but not the plan for revenge.
Yup. It’s fucked.
It's his fault for wearing flammable clothing. He was asking for it.
He did it to himself. You can't prove they did it! Even if they said they did they are suffering mental Stress.
Good
What's that you say, sonny?
You say it was a blameless accident? What a shame. Oh well.
I don't quite get the family construct here:
Two teenage step-sisters were arrested in Pakistan's Gujranwala, for allegedly setting their father on fire in revenge for rape
If they are step-sisters they can't share a father, if they did that would make them half-sisters not step-sisters.
But aside from that, it sounds like a pretty solid plan they found there, easy enough for teenagers and apparently effective.
man bites dog
BRO Is India actually going to abolish their patriarchy? Wild.
