Quotes Most people have a negative mindset about the bill passed but it’s aimed at protecting everybody in the country against sexual abuse. All our religious groupings condemn such acts. It is also made to favour both men and women on one side and boys and girls of all ages on the side. Rape is a rampant global offence and we have to control it in our society by allotting a serious punishment to it to serve as deterrent to would-be offenders.
