Pakistani Woman cuts off would-be rapist’s penis as he tried to rape her at home

In what comes as shocking news, Pakistani woman chopped man’s penis as the latter tried to attack the woman inside the home. The woman accused the man of trying to rape her according to police.

The 25-year-old woman carried a knife in order to defend herself from the attack of a man who stormed her house in the central province of Punjab, police official Mohamed Ilyas added in a statement.

The woman also told police that she was alone at home when the man broke in and tried to rape her. The woman quickly ran to the kitchen and then grabbed a knife and cut off his penis when he again tried to attack her, police official Ilyas said, citing the woman’s account.

The 28-year-old man was being treated at the nearby local hospital in the city of Faisalabad and will be interrogated once his health condition improves, Ilyas added.

It should be noted over hundreds of women are raped in Pakistan every year, but those who commit the sin are rarely punished because of poor laws and complicated procedures for prosecution, as per Human Rights Commission of Pakistan.

In fact, many women keep mum and decline to file a police report to avoid being identified and shamed by country’s conservative society, advocacy group Aurat Foundation added.

“It is a painful situation. Often victims are blamed both by the legal system and the society,” women’s rights activist Farzana Bari said.
