Kavita screen test scandal


Kavita screen test scandal may also recall the case was the rape of a rural women's health workers Bhanwari Bai in 1995, when a judge ruled he could not have been raped since she was a "low caste" that "top four caste men" accused of raping her. Judge the offensive claim was that the upper caste men did not deign to touch a low-caste woman, while rape is too often implemented as a weapon to humiliate and punish the oppressed castes in India. Another recent case was terrible violation Khairlanji case when a Dalit (oppressed caste) woman and her daughter were brutally gang raped in the light of a people and then publicly massacred along with his two children. There was a conviction in this case (after all, the usual delays and refusals by the police to file a case), but the verdict was criticized by many activists as only convicted of rape and refused to invoke the right of India against the atrocities of caste discrimination.

In forest areas of India, Indian women who have bravely brought cases of violation against the security personnel have discovered that their rapists not only roam free, free kidnap and threaten to these women and their families that if cases are pursued, it could be arrested or killed, even after being described as "extremists" and "insurgents." The country's capital, Delhi has seen a number of rape cases in recent times. A high profile ex-cop KPS Gill, himself convicted of sexual harassment, the famous commentary on the increasing incidents of rape in New Delhi, "I would blame the women who try to wear certain clothes just to stay in tune with the trend.'re the ones who provoke men. "Similarly, in all individual cases of rape is routine to see women being blamed for being late at night or in the wrong company. The conviction rate for rape and sexual assault is extremely low. There have been many cases in India where the judges have suggested that charges be dropped if the rapist marries his victim. A former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of India, said recently in a public speech that advocates women's movement should not be excluded that the marriage between rapists and their victims! A man recently convicted of rape had relaxed its ruling by a judge as a reward for clearing the qualifying examinations to be part of the national bureaucracy in India.

Certainly from the perspective of all women in India who are the most brutal of rapists going free, protected by police and State, and more serious charges of rape trivial or even suppressed by force, the idea a man hunted by Interpol on charges which are so complex and ambiguous as the case of Assange is worrying. From what I heard, the laws of Sweden rape is nothing to discuss with, and are actually quite enviable for us in India, where even marital rape is still not considered illegal. But for the U.S. Assange to shoot the shoulders of the two Swedish women is actually an insult to women who struggle in vain for justice worldwide. It is possible that informal Assange throws fans can not be very democratic, but may be guilty of insensitivity to the concerns and rights of women, for example, their right to be free of HIV). But if sexism is a crime worthy of the attention of Interpol, then immediately Interpol arrest of Silvio Berlusconi and Bill Clinton, only to boot.
