Of late, I have been witnessing a very disturbing increase in the crime against females, be a girl child, a teenager, or an adult woman. It has almost become the order of the day. Newspapers are replete with such news. No doubt, India has been placed at parity with Afghanistan as the worst countries for a female to born in. Sometimes, I guess, had it been there in the past too but very less reported?.. or the mind set of the Indian male is becoming less human, devoid of any compassion and respect for the other gender, and is also becoming fearless of the Indian Law!
So, I fancied an idea to let the world know the dark side of "Being a Female in India."
Let there be the consciences shaken, people of all walks do some soul searching..take a pause and raise their voice, wherever they are, against the atrocities being meted out to girls and women, with a result that cruelity against the female gender starts receding, and we give to our generations to come a society where a woman is respected in its true essence-as as wife, as a sister, as a mother, as a grand mother et al..is the sole objective of this blog.
Amen.

Man held for forcing woman into relation TNN | Jun 13, 2012, 04.52AM IST


MUMBAI: A 25-year-old man was arrested by the Malwani police after he forced a woman to have sexual relations with him and threatened to expose details of her affair with another man to her husband if she refused. The incident took place last year, but the victim approached the cops only last week.
The accused, Shailesh Pawar, has been booked on rape charges.
The victim, aged around 31, works at a beauty parlour. She has been married for the past ten years and resides at Mira Road. "Pawar stayed in the same neighbourhood as the victim's parents at Hanuman Nagar in Kandivali East. He was aware of the victim's relationship with another man before she got married," senior inspector Abdul Rauf Shaikh said.
In August 2011, Pawar met the victim in Kandivali where she had come for some work. He then inquired about her current residence and noted her mobilephone number. Two days later, Pawar called up the victim and threatened to expose details about her previous affair to her husband, if she did not agree to having a physical relationship with him. The victim was very scared and did not know whom to confide in, police said. Pawar was also acquainted with the victim's husband.
In August itself, Pawar met the victim at Kandivali and took her to Aksa beach at Malwani, where she was raped. In November, Pawar summoned the victim again and she was raped for the second time. After the victim mustered the courage to inform her husband about her ordeal, the couple lodged a complaint with Mira Road police this year. Pawar was arrested by the Mira Road cops.
As the case had occurred in the jurisdiction of the Malwani police, the Mira Road cops transferred it to them. "Pawar was arrested on Saturday. A metropolitan court has remanded him to police custody. Both, Pawar and the victim, have been sent for a medical examination," Shaikh said.
