Rape Victim, 14, Dies After Public Flogging

A 14-year-old Bangladeshi girl allegedly raped by a much older cousin has died after being publicly flogged for adultery, media reports said.

Hena Begum was sentenced to receive 100 lashes by a village council made up of elders and Muslim clerics in the district of Shariatpur, about 35 miles from the capital, Dhaka, the BBC said today.

She endured about 80 lashes before collapsing Monday, according to The Daily Star, a Bangladeshi newspaper. Her family took her to a hospital, where she died.

"What sort of justice is this? My daughter has been beaten to death in the name of justice. If it had been a proper court then my daughter would not have died," Dorbesh Khan, the girl's father, told the BBC.

Family members said Hena was raped by a 40-year-old married cousin, The Daily Star said. The man's family beat up the teen, then accused of her adultery, the newspaper said.

Wow, no outrage from the leftist socialist fems?

Just wondering that myself...very quiet from the left who defend muslims, that says they are a friendly peaceful religion..crickets chirping...

Hey Fruit cakes, you can find extreme actions by people from all religions.

How about the Christians that won't take a child to see a Dr. for a common illness and the child dies?

No need to just pick on one religion, all religions have people that live in the extreme.

This is not "extreme" action; it is sanctioned action by the authorities in that country. The people of the Middle East are cavemen, knuckle-dragger, pre-historic, stone age, brutes. (Sure there are a few exceptions who have been educated in the U.S., but they are exceptions.)

Xmas P_ rn, you sound like an apologist for the brutes. Also you sound like a self-loather. You also sound as if you have no sympathy for the 14 year old girl who was raped, then killed.

The Muslim religion always radicalizes to cave man. Consider why Spain ran the Moors out of Spain back when.

xmas, do you supporet what happened to this young girl? Major is correct, this is not one isolated occurance, its happens all the time...

How's that phishing going for you guys? Catch any yet?

Caught you soul..I think I'll throw you back, I don't like carp..bottom feeders you know, you must enjoy that..thanks for playing

Of course, it is standard for Outdoor to only post half of the story. The important part for men with small brains and packages is to use half truths and extreme events to male Muslims look bad. They ignore the fact that Christians have just as many crazies going to the extreme.

From the rest of the article, which outdoor didn't bother posting:

Four people, including a Muslim cleric, have been arrested in connection with Hena's death, the BBC said. Police said they were looking for another 14 people in the case.

Bangladesh's high court has ordered district officials in Shariatpur to explain why they did not protect the girl, The Daily Star said. The court ruled eight months ago that Shariah punishment was illegal.
