Elders of panchayat in Muzzafargarh ordered the rape of a teenage girl as revenge for the rape crime committed by her brother. This has rightly outraged a large number of people. Women cannot be treated this way.
This conservative mindset is a stumbling block in our way to progress. We cannot allow such callous and cruel treatment of innocent girls. The government should take notice of such incidents, and punish the people responsible for such ‘orders’.
