Two Sisters Sentenced to Rape as Punishment for Their Brother's Crime

A 23-year-old lady, and her 15-year-old sister were paraded naked with blackened faces and have been sentenced to being raped as punishment because their brother ran off with a married woman.… Lord of mercy!!!

According to news site Zee Media:


The sisters’ brother Ravi fell in love with a girl from the Jat caste, a higher social caste than Ravi and his family, who are Dalit, once known as the ‘untouchables’, who are at the bottom of India’s caste system.

The Jat woman’s family married her off to someone else in February but she later escaped and eloped with Ravi in March.

As punishment, on July 31 a village council decided Ravi’s sisters should be raped to avenge his actions.

The horrific order was revealed by Amnesty International which said the sisters and their family have fled their village in the Baghpat district, just outside of Delhi – Sumit Kumar, another brother of Meenakshi, told Amnesty that members of the Jat caste were powerful members of the village council, saying: “The Jat decision is final.”

In an appeal, Amnesty said:

“Unelected village councils such as this are widespread in parts of India.

“More often than not they are made up of older men from dominant castes, who prescribe rules for social behaviour and interaction in villages.

“Nothing could justify this abhorrent punishment. It’s not fair. It’s not right. And it’s against the law 
Hmmm…. what kind of culture are these people practicing for God sake? -
