The news of 13 year old girl being raped and murdered in Sarpang killed a part of me this morning. This was something we used to hear from distant lands as shocking news. Who would have thought our country will have to see this day. We have strong laws, so many people are in jail for rape, and still what is missing?
I am still angry over the news of girl being raped by her father and brother, which didn't even make so much news among us and by tomorrow even today's news will be forgotten. We don't care much- we don't care as long as it didn't happen to someone our own.

Oh God! let her soul rest in peace. How terrible it is to hear such happenings in Bhutan, a GNH, Buddhist country. This is outrageous. Such criminals must be hanged to death. I hope our people and government wont let go off such issues silently.
ReplyDeleteIts irony that such terrible incidents are on the rise and that cannot be tolerated at all. i am afraid how safe is Bhutan now for innocent girls like her. There are so many questions that has no immediate answers.
ReplyDeleteHope the government does all that is necessary.
may her soul finds peace..
