The people who do this should be brought to justice
ISLAMABAD: Every year in the world and in Pakistan, hundreds of innocent women are raped and physically and mentally tortured. This is a very sad situation and something needs to be done about this crime. The saddest part is that most of the time, the culprits of these crimes go unpunished and escape and do not get the punishment they deserve.
I feel awful when I see what is happening in my country. We, as a nation, need to stand up and protest against this injustice and this madness. The people who do this should be brought to justice. Laws should be made more strict and the Government of Pakistan should enforce them, acting against this crime that has become too common in our country. It is high time. The people of Pakistan, and especially the women of our country, should stand up and protest against this crime and injustice.
