gang rape as political statement: following in the footsteps of the punjabis who heaved and labored mightily to improve the bengali genetic pool with sturdy w. pakistani genes. and to think those dark bengalis were not grateful!

The political situation has seen some major changes in Bangladesh over the year since the President declared a state of emergency and resigned from the post on 11 January 2007. The head of the Caretaker Government, Fakhruddin Ahmed, vowed to crack down on corruption and violence within the country and this crackdown led to numerous politicians being arrested. The detainees included politicians, businessmen and others accused of involvement in extortion and other acts of corruption, including the two former Prime Ministers and main leaders of the Bangladeshi political scene: Sheikh Hasina (Awami League) and Khaleda Zia (Bangladesh Nationalist Party). In August, violent clashes occurred between police and students, who were demanding an end to emergency rule. This led to curfews in Dhaka and five other cities. The government says elections will be held only once it has rid the country of corruption, and promises that will be achieved by the end of the year 2008.
The government's aspiration to end corruption is a welcomed move –Transparency International has placed Bangladesh at the bottom of its Corruption Perceptions Index for four years running. Corruption is also one of the main obstacles for women to obtain justice for crimes committed against them.
However, reports from our reliable and various sources unfortunately shows that the situation for women in Bangladesh continues to be a major problem. GHRD continues to recieve rape cases every week. Considering the current instability within Bangladesh, and the apparent impotence of the authorities to implement their own legislation, the problems faced by women, as faced by minority groups in Bangladesh, are likely to continue.
GHRDs campaign "Stop the Gang Rapes" will therefore continue to raise awareness about sexual violence in Bangladesh, to encourage the present and future government to acknowledge the difficult position women obtain in the country.

I'm a Muslim Bengali, and I know that the Pakistanis always saw us as lower people by the color of our skin. I'm whiter and taller than most Pakistanis, and Im a Bengali but I know for a fact they will always see us as low people just because we are non-Pakis.
