Enforce law effectively to stop violence against women: TIB
Transparency International Bangladesh (TIB) today demanded effective enforcement of law to stop violence against women in society as crimes like rape can't be stopped due to lack of exemplary punishment in most cases.
They also stressed on the need for coordinated initiative to change social mindset towards women, said a press release sent to media on the eve of the 16-day Activism against Gender-based violence launched globally today.
TIB strongly demanded ensuring tough and exemplary punishment through fair judicial process for those who are directly or indirectly involved in every incident of violence against women.
"The coronavirus pandemic has multiplied the violence against women alongside the health crisis," said TIB Executive Director Dr Iftekharuzzaman.
