The few stories that do get out represent a miniscule fraction of the sad reality.

Though females seem to have it worse, generally speaking being in a more powerless position.

Though yes these sorts of actions against women and men are despicable.

Children worst of all.

I believe our media feels they can't hi-light it, for what reasons I do not know. I would guess some are wary that it would cause them to appear bias as they suffer from a reverse form of islamaphobia for lack of better term, that is being terrified to point a valid critical eye on atrocities like this. Also people hate the taste of crow. So if an outlet heralds and praises one group then sees this, they would rather give slight or no coverage rather than admit their own naivete. IMO

Simply sad....

of this. The Maldives lost a bundle because this woman is marrying money. Score one for pissed off women.

it is that they're trying to explain to the judiciary that the law needs to be changed. That in the year 2013, a law is on the books anywhere in the world that would lash a child, probably to death over "fornication" is depressing beyond measure. This after the child was raped by her stepfather.

Or do they applaud for him?
