Hudood law

This must be one of the supreme instruments for oppressing women.

Under Pakistan's hudood laws, thousands of women who report rapes are imprisoned and punished for reporting rape.

If rape victims cannot provide four male witnesses to the crime, they risk being whipped for adultery, since they acknowledge illicit sex and cannot prove rape.

A woman witness is not acceptable (it has to be FOUR male witnesses) because women are not really humans in the islamic world.
