If More women follow her footsteps we can minimise the incidence of this crime and, what's more, it can be a lesson to our political "bastards"!!!

This lady is quite clearly the victim here. Though the punishment has been harsh this would be rapist has had his just desserts. Let this be a lesson to all those contemplating harassment of innocent females especially those living alone. Maybe she needs to be offered an Army cadre position for her valour! MM
