If its not Consent must be Rape


http://www.namibian.com.na/
 Over the weekend a friend of mine told me that a couple  high school student got beaten up at a house party because the apparently raped a girl.He told me that when leaving the party and they heard some screams from one of the rooms but they did not sound like screams for help just another drunk girl having fun or misbehaving so the paid no mind.

Sebulon Nghimtina and Benjamin Imalwa Bothe where arrested lastSaturday night and released the next day simply because the girl was giving the police contradicting stories. Then they were arrested again on Wednesday this week, and only got Bail last night.

Now I am thinking in Namibia women can easily claim that she got raped by two people in one night on separate occasions at a party with a story that’s not straight and you still get arrested have to pay bail and given the condition you do not make contact with the girl you just meet that one night.
   
I am just saying in cases where the police arrive on scene protocol should be in place that evidence should be provided and not based on he said she said they saw. And to be honest if the guys where foreign students they will still be in jail with a high chance of denied bail. Why because that’s the perception of foreign students they like to take advantage of Namibian women they meet on random parties.

  1. This story really touched,it seems like people derive pleasure from seeing other people get hurt, get tortured. i guess the blame should go to the police for not finding sufficient evidence before carrying out they job, it seemed like the favor the opposite sex (ladies)more. the treatment should be equal on both parties and they should be no favoritism.
