A very worrisome news report appeared on the front page of Daily Times yesterday, which was again highlighted on ATP as well On average, 100 women are raped every 24 hours in Karachi...
Thank you for the story drawab. This is extremely upsetting to me, and we must continue to encourage coverage on this topic so it results in more global awareness. V-Day is the best movement/organization (I'm aware of) dedicated to preventing violence against women around the world. The website is http://v10.vday.org/. Victims should contact the V-Day movement directly no matter where they live in the world. This is the description from their website.
V-Day is a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. V-Day is a catalyst that promotes creative events to increase awareness, raise money and revitalize the spirit of existing anti-violence organizations. V-Day generates broader attention for the fight to stop worldwide violence against women and girls, including rape, battery, incest, female genital mutilation (FGM) and sexual slavery.
It is very disheartening to learn the wretched state in which working women have been put into and that too in an aged and enlightened city of Karachi. This is just unbearable. Is it a parameter to realize what a mess have been made in the modern Pakistan?I am afraid to accept what Additional Police Surgeon (APS). Dr Zulfiqar Siyal has stated.

This is just tragic. It is even more tragic that the women do not dare to come forward and file charges. Just tragic.
