That was an exploit in the legal code which has already been changed..Originally Posted by http://www.stopvaw.org/Turkey.html
Problems within the legal system are another obstacle for victims of sexual assault. Under the former Penal Code, a perpetrator could escape punishment by marrying the victim. This provision often placed high pressure on the victim to wed her rapist for the sake of family honor.
But I want to ask, what does it have to do with Islam?.. I mean Stop Violence Against Women is a human rights organization isn't it ? I can't see any one-on-one connection with women exposed to violence and Islam over there. You still think the way and relate things you'd like to see them together..
Violence against women in Turkey is debatable. Yes, there is, although waning dramatically day by day. Especially in the eastern parts, that's a common issue. You know "freedom fighters" turn back to their homes with a little bit of anger..
1- What does this violence against women issues has to do with Islam ? How do you relate according to those articles ?
2- Why would I like you being a Muslim, Fragony? It's all about your mentality and way of belief which does not bother me at all. Turkey is a 70-million-populated country where we peacefully live - where those social incidents are no more or less than any other peaceful one.
3- "Come and See" is a lot better way to know about something rather than "Hear and Accuse".
It's something like I'd be reading Das Kapital with my readily prejudice. If you read something that way - no matter who you are-, you can find so much to make fun of and oppose to.
Anyway, live your belief between yourself and God - where it actually is meant to be.
