| [ ] forced to 'marry' her father-in-law rapist
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - An Indian rape victim is being forced by village elders to "marry" her rapist -- her father-in-law, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.
Community leaders in Charthawal village, backed by local Muslim clerics, believe that by being raped, 28-year-old Imrana's 10-year marriage has been nullified under Islamic law, The Asian Age newspaper said.
Holding a special council on Sunday, village leaders ordered the mother of five to leave her husband, Noor Mohammed, and live with her parental family for seven months and 10 days and make herself "pure" again, The Age said. It did not say how she becomes pure.
After that, she must "marry" her father-in-law and live with him, along with his legal wife.
"She... will then be like a mother to Noor Mohammed," the paper quoted local cleric Shamim Ahmad saying.
Her four brothers have agreed to the edict. She has not but in India, victims of crime often have nowhere to turn and with even her own family supporting the edict she may have little choice.
Police are now investigating and say they plan to arrest the father-in-law. They refuse to comment on the village elders' ruling, saying it is a sensitive religious issue.
The village is in Uttar Pradesh, one of India's poorest and most backward states and its most populous, with more than 165 million people, more than Russia's 145 million. |

No you wouldn't. It would be against your religion. These people don't think like us, because they don't live with the same kinds of beliefs as we do. If you killed yourself you would be humiliating your family, and most probably your female relatives would be treated even worse than you were after you did (if you for some reason went against the religion and did it) |

That's just retarded.
Then again, I guess, her "son" could always rape her, then they could get married again and live happily ever after! |

Haven't you been paying attention? WOMEN DON'T THINK. They don't have an oppinion, they do what they're told or they are publicaly BEATEN to death by their male relatives. |

| yah, respect and communication is the thing.
But still, I wonder why women there don't do anything to get their rights heard...
Maybe they're too brainwashed? |
