+75 A rape victim has to suffer a lot. Similar, a person falsely accused of rape suffers too. He loses his job and doesn't find another one due to the blot of being accused of rape. He loses his prestige in society. He is mistreated everywhere. His family also suffers. "Rape laws should be strict but their misuse should also be curbed so that innocent lives do not get destroyed. AMIRITE?

The problem of misuse is very serious. However, it doesn't get any seious public response because the media and our governments are not willing to consider this point. All of them care only about women

misuse of rape laws is very common. Many people are not aware of this because media does not give much attention to this topic. Also, in such cases, men do not get any help from society. There are no candle marches, no rallies, no protests to stop the misuse.

Being accused of rape does nothing for your job. It's not until you get convicted that jobs start caring. It does a number on the family though.

by Anonymous 10 years ago

i think you need to do a bit of research regarding this. An accusation of rape make a man "rapist" in the eyes of society. No one cares about the court's decision. If the court says," the man was innocent and the case was totally false", media cries," JUSTICE DENIED TO RAPE VICTIM, RAPIST DECLARED INNOCENT". Due to this, an innocent man suffers even after he has been proved innocent. As far as the job is concerned, everyone in our society claims to be "woman-friendly". So, they don't want to keep a man who has been "accused" of rape. Therefore, misuse has to be curbed from the very first stage i.e. accusation.

I don't think I should reply to that because you're patronizing me, but my dad was accused of rape a year ago. He got two jobs, one at a nuclear plant, and one at a drive shaft factory. He actually had sex with the girl too so it's not even like there was no possible chance he did it. Getting charged with a crime does not make you a criminal. Getting convicted of a crime does. That's the fair way. Our legal system runs "innocent until //proven// guilty" not "guilty until proven innocent"

by Anonymous 10 years ago

in india, it is "guilty until proven innocent" for the following type of cases:- 1. rape 2. domestic violence 3. dowry 4. child abuse I don't about you or where you are, but this is true of where I live.... that's why I said "please do some research".. I don't mean to offend you but I still think you should find out more on this topic (about what happens in different countries)

The law in India is "Innocent until proven guilty." It doesn't always happen that way, but that doesn't mean the laws is "Guilty until proven innocent." You apparently need to research your own country before presuming living there makes you an expert on the legal system.

how many indian laws do you know about? do you know anything about 498a?? under this act, if a bride complains to police that she has been tortured by her husband and his family, the whole family is instantly arrested (even 3 yr old babies or 90 yr old persons are not spared) GUILTY UNTIL PROVED INNOCENT such cases destroy the lives of many people at one go. please read MORE about indian laws before replying and i haven't presumed myself as being an expert. i am not an expert but i know MUCH more than foreign never-do-well s who don't anything about indian laws they think indian laws are similar to laws of other countries. it is not so. india has laws regarding abolition of dowry from indian society.. does any other country have laws regarding "dowry"??? please tell me if you ever heard of such a country... even if law declares an accused person innocent, the BLOT of having been ACCUSED never leaves that person...........

Even in America people are arrested before they have been proven innocent simply so that they can be held for further questioning. An arrest is not a substitute for being found guilty- even in America, if you are found at the scene of arson, you will be arrested so that you can be questioned, that doesn't mean you were found guilty. The law in India is not guilty until proven innocent because being arrested doesn't mean you were found guilty. And I'm not even talking about the blot of being accused never leaving the person. You living there also doesn't equal you knowing more about the law.

man, in india people are not just arrested. they have to be there until they are proved innocent also, as i mentioned, these laws do not spare anyone even 2-3 old babies or 90 yr old persons are locked without any consideration of age, weakness etc. can a 2 yr old baby hurt someone can a 90 yr old woman, who cannot even walk properly, attack someone??? these laws are anti - human

Considering the number of rapist who never get convicted I would say that the number of people who are falsely accused is negligible.

by Anonymous 10 years ago

let me tell you, the notion that MOST of the rapists never get convicted has VERY LITTLE truth in it. Of course, there are some cases in which the rapists never get convicted. But these cases are MUCH LESS IN NUMBER as compared to what you think. Also, about 90% of rape complaints filed in Delhi (India) are FALSE. In other places as well, the numbers are similar. This is what police records say. Many girls nowadays use the word "RAPE" as an easy way to become popular, get money etc. Many of them do this for revenge. The number of people who are falsely accused is very high. If you don't believe me, visit your nearest police station (if you are in India or some other country where rape cases have become very common) and they will tell you the truth.

by Anonymous 10 years ago

Are they really false or are they false because what the woman says happened doesn't "count" as rape? Fact: most rapist get away with it. I don't have access to the statistics at the moment, but it's true. People don't just make up lies about rape. Some do, but considering most rapist are never convicted I would hazard a guess that most falsely accused people are never convicted either. Most of the time the victim is blamed. Why would a person lie about being raped if everyone is just going to tell them that they were asking for it?

if you think men DOMINATE in India, you've been misinformed. of course, in india, families are headed by males, but that does not mean that men DOMINATE here. men are in a quite poor condition nowadays.. i am talking about normal men (not criminals) ask an indian child who dominates in his family. and you'll be told that it's his/her MOTHER who dominates. this is true of most of the families. women in india are not weak, oppressed or devoid of all rights.. it is a misconception that media has spread about india

You know who is more reliable than police when it comes to statistics on rape? Scientists whose job it is to gather and study statistics. You're not providing a source either, we're supposed to take your word that the police said that and we're supposed to take the word of male police in a patriarchal society. From reading through the comments, I can see you've been provided with sources for data several times and chose to ignore it while offering none yourself, so I'm only mention how unreasonable you're being rather than waste my time arguing statistics you refuse to acknowledge.

You just called someone an idiot, mean while you don't think scientist prepare statistics and data. The physicist who gathers data and prepares statistics on the likelihood of there being another Earth like planet in our galaxy isn't a scientist then I guess? The word scientist does not just refer to someone who studies the physical sciences either. The word scientist literally means "a person who studies or practices any of the sciences or who uses scientific methods" Notice how it doesn't specify studies the physical sciences, it says ANY of the sciences or uses the scientific method. Social scientists are scientists too by the very definition of the word scientist, you have been provided a link to a dictionary to prove it yet you ignore it. You ignore facts and believe your preconceived ideas are right no matter what evidence you are presented. The phrase "I substitute your reality and replace my own" suits you strongly, except it's not my subjective reality you ignore, which would be fine, you ignore pure fact and dictionary definitions of words and claim your opinions are fact.

I DO NOT THINK BADLY OF WOMEN. MY POINT IS THAT in india, all men are considered bad by birth and women are considered to be innocent, incapable of crime. No one openly tells you this in India, you have to feel it yourself In India, if a man is accused of a crime, he is considered to be a criminal even before his crime has been proved. But when a woman is accused, they cry," she is innocent , she has been cheated, she is not guilty, someone else is the culprit." I do not hate women, but I hate those who think women are innocent and can't commit crimes. Do you agree?

You result to insult before proving you're right? Yeah, I'm not gonna take you seriously now. I'm getting ready for work now, so I don't have 2 hours to waste searching for your proof. Provide me with proof and I might take you seriously. Women do lie. I never said they didn't. But the number of falsely accused and convicted is negligible in comparison to the number of people who actually rape and are never convicted. Most "false" claims are the result of people not taking the victim seriously. If a woman says yes but changes her mind and the man still has sex with her, it's still rape. It's cases like that that are most often called "false."

what i am saying about FALSE cases is based upon what the POLICE OFFICERS say. Police officers in Delhi and Mumbai (among other cities) come across thousands of cases every month and it's them who say that 90% of the cases are false. If you can't rely upon the statements of police officers then there's no one else you can rely upon because it's the police who investigate all cases. IN INDIA, the VICTIM's opinion is considered VERY SERIOUSLY. At least as far as registering her complaint and arresting the accused is concerned. Also, False has various meanings:- Sometimes prostitutes also complain of being raped Sometimes a girl complains against her boyfriend because he didn't give her the money she demanded for going for shopping. etc. I have seen the 2nd type of case closely. And if you don't want to consider me seriously, WHO CARES??? You can't spend 2 hours for knowing the truth but you have got enough time for wasting others' time by posting crap comments... How ironic!!! I am not trying to insult anyone. In fact, I feel insulted when someone who knows only what media tells them challenges me. I know more than what media tells me.

you're so biased man you act as if the police can't lie and I guarantee you the percentage is NOT 90% of cases are false and I doubt the majority of police officers in India would agree to that false percentage people are way too concerned with honor to have such a high percentage that made up statistic is laughable

You're wrong. 18% of rape cases in Delhi are false. That's a bit less than 90%, no? Stop pulling statistics out of your ass. http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2008-12-29/delhi/27912936_1_sexual-assault-false-cases-delhi-police That statistic is JUST for Delhi. Rape laws in India are just now changing. What used to not be considered rape now constitutes rape. Did you know that the only thing that counted as rape used to be penetration with a penis? Now it includes any sort of unwanted penetration or oral. Some officers are probably inclined to say forced oral is a "false" rape accusation. It is still legal for a man to force himself on his wife, so if she complains of rape, it will be considered "false." Sure, //some// people are making it up (but only 25% of the false claims are made up for revenge). Some people were actually raped and are accusing someone else to protect the person who raped them because they're family or because they were threatened. Either way, the number of false accusations pales in comparison to the number of people who are never even accused. Guess what? Cops lie. It happens. They're only human, after all. Stop insulting the media when you're telling people to search for your proof. Your "proof" will be provided by the media. Also, you know it's possible to rape a prostitute, right? Being a prostitute does not automatically make it okay to rape them. Something else from something you said in another comment: You should look up the definition of shy. If you can't talk to strangers, you're shy. Everyone opens up to people they're close to.
