 * Mukhtaran Bibi**

In June 2002, members of a high-status tribe sexually abused one of Mukhtaran’s brothers and then covered up their crime by falsely accusing him of having an affair with a high-status woman. The village’s tribal council determined that the suitable punishment for the supposed affair was for high-status men to rape one of the boy’s sisters, so the council sentenced Ms. Mukhtaran to be gang-raped. Members of the high-status tribe stripped her naked and took turns raping her. Then they forced her to walk home naked in front of many villagers.This affected all her family especailly her. She took charged and demanded them. She testified against her attackers. This event shows intolerance, bacuse she got raped. She was trying not to accpect it that it happened to her. When she finally had been raped she had to go home naked in front of everyone in her village. Frist intolerance was when the govener gave approval to Mukhtaran's rapist ,to be set free Multan. In some ways this outcome is hard to Mukntaran. Her govener showed no tolerance to try to accept that members of hogh status would rape a girl of low satus. There was a injustice bacuse the men were set free, like if they did nothing wrong. There are many ways we can help her. Texas Muslim Women¹s Foundation (Richardson, TX) is an organization that help muslim girl that have been raped. Another one is JIMAS fully supports the cause for women's rights granted by God in Islam and for the victims of sexual violence. Send any donations. Those are non-profit organizations.
