Sir — The existing laws on rape are weak, which is why we have not been able to curb the numerous cases of sexual assaults on women. Perhaps the most uncomfortable procedure in the investigation of such cases is the identification parade. In most cases, the survivor finds it difficult to identify the accused after the horrible experience she has faced. Moreover, the case drags on for years, leaving the victim despondent.
Cases of sexual molestation should preferably be tried by women judges, to ensure sensitivity. The men who commit such gruesome acts are frustrated human beings. Rapists are like terrorists with a depraved mind. They have no religion. Also, in many cases, rape complaints are covered up by the police for various reasons.
