Pakistan Tribe Punishes Sister for Brother's Crime

quote[In June 2002, Mai lost the chance to lead a normal life. In line with the so-called “tribal law” the Punchayat (local council)of the Mastoi tribes passed a ridiculous sentence of gang-rape on her to punish her due to “her brother’s suspected affair with a woman of higher social standing.”]

This is just disgusting, but at least she's having some success in getting reform.
