Introduction:

CRIME AGAINST WOMEN {SECTION 375 OF IPC} DEFINES RAPE as sexual intercourse with woman AGAINST HER WIII, WITHOUT HER CONSENT, with her consent but CONSENT IS TAKEN BY PUTTING HER LOVED ONE IN DANGER, with her consent when the man knows that HE IS NOT HER HUSBAND and her consent is given because she believes herself to be lawfully married to that another man, with her consent but at time of giving consent SHE WAS INTOXICATED OR HAVE UNSOUND MIND, with or without her consent when she is UNDER 18 YEARS OF HER AGE, or with a woman who is UNABLE TO COMMUNICATE HER CONSENT.

It does not physically resist penetration this reason it should not be regarded as sexual activity. A medical procedure or intervention shall not shape an offense of rape. - Sexual intercourse with wife where the age of wife is under 15 years. IT NOWHERE MEANS THAT MARITAL RAPE IS ALLOWED. If a woman is above 15 years and forced into sexual intercourse even by her husband then it is PUNISHABLE under DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ACT,2005 of the parliament of INDIA. PUNISHMENT FOR RAPE: SECTION 376 states IMPRISONMENT of not less than 7-10 years. FINE OF MONEY REQUIRED FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT OF VICTIM.

2020 HATHRAS GANG RAPE AND MURDER:

She was just a 19-YEAR-old Dalit woman busy in farm chores and collecting cattle fodder on her farm on the unfortunate day of 14th SEPTEMBER 2020. It was a sudden attack on a girl by 4 CRUEL men SANDEEP, RAMU, LUVKUSH, and RAVI allegedly dragged her away by dupatta which she wore all around her neck they committed rape and chopped her tongue. They continued hurting her so bad that her SPINAL CORD was damaged so badly and then she was thrown on the same piece of land all blooded. The victim screamed lying on the work field. After some time victim’s mother rushed towards her finding out what is wrong and when she saw her she was all in shock and immediately called her brother and took her to the police station where police UNFORTUNATELY first denied to file a complaint about the first 1 hour and then finally filed a complaint against SANDEEP under SECTION 354 of IPC {ATTEMPT TO OUTRAGE THE MODESTY OF WOMAN} and girl was hospitalized to some district Hospital and then due to scarce resources, she was then officially admitted to JNMC HOSPITAL in ALIGARH for good 14 days. Over the next week, the victim’s condition worsened.

OHH! DEAR SOCIETY, I QUESTION WHY IS RAPE BAILABLE WHY AM I NOT ABLE TO KILL THE PERSON WHO IS SO CRUEL… IF ANY MAN IN THE FORM OF DEMON CAN DARE TO TOUCH ME WITHOUT MY CONSENT AND KILL ME… THEN WHY CANT’ I THE ANGEL IN THE FORM OF WOMAN ASK FOR A SENTENCE TO DEATH FOR DEMON WHO TRIED TO KILL ME… I QUESTION WHY?

I wonder many times and feel devastated that I am not safe like anything can happen to me any time for no reason and I can be the next victim. If RAPIST can do murder innocent victims then what is stopping the judiciary from passing a direct sentence to death for such demons. I wonder why isn’t rape a non-bailable offense.

LIKE I WONDER WHAT CAN BE THE REASON FOR DOING SOMEBODY’S RAPE… IT’S AN UNREASONABLE OFFENCE THAT RAPIST SHOULD NOT EVEN BE GIVEN A CHANCE TO EXPLAIN HIMSELF.
THE ONLY PUNISHMENT FOR RAPE MUST BE DEATH.
IF A VICTIM CAN BE MURDERED UNREASONABLY THEN THE RAPIST NEEDS TO BE SENTENCED TO DEATH FOR A BIG REASON.
RAPE MEANS RAPE and NO MEANS NO.
