Dishonored
Dømt til voldtekt
The local clan council in Merwala, Pakistan, ruled that Mukhtar Mai's family was to blame for a conflict between her clan and a far wealthier one. Because it was a question of honour, the punishment was the violation of Mukhtar. In June 2002 four men raped her, with the council's blessing. More than a hundred people witnessed the assault, among them Mukhtar's father, who was prevented from interfering.
