A 19-year-old Pakistani woman has been sentenced to death for reporting her cousin raped her at gunpoint.
She was asleep in her home in the South-western City of Rajanpur in the Punjab province when the assault occurred.
The young woman reported the crime to the local village court only to hear she was at fault for arousing the sexual desires of the rapist.
PBS calls Pakistani law a “delicate balance between religious and secular law.” However, life for women in Pakistan is anything but delicate.
The Council of Islamic Ideology, a committee of Islamic scholars, works with the Pakistani government to ensure laws align with Islamic teachings.
This young Pakistani woman’s impending murder is in many ways a warning.

Thats more f**e news. CNN got a hold of some Peace Corp internal doc that said all they were going to do was stop the branding name and refer it to the peace corps name for it. it still continues ..has over 250 million in the budget. and all the people who support it donate in the millions for it. So, no, the education will move on. However, the killing wont stop. educating women is one very noble cause. stopping violence to women is hard since those in power will never stop in the name of their religion. Educate the MEN who do this. Stop those imams teaching the young men these horrific lessons. For everyone’s sake, stop teaching hate.
Sharia in action and the American left wants to force this on our country. Their level of stupidity in the face of proof is beyond belief
Awww how peaceful of that little muslim.
I believe that people this is an honor killing for the family and it’s an honor killing for the rapist we horrible women it’s all our fault
She shouldn’t have been taunting them by carrying her v****a in public like that, poor towel heads can hump only so many goats before the cravings of rape followed by murder consume them. Holy snackbar…
