A young girl was raped by a man posing as a plain clothes officer; he asked her to come to
the police station when she and her male friend didn't have a driver`s
license to show. He sent the boy off to get his license and asked the girl
to accompany him to the police station. Took her instead to an isolated
area where the horrendous crime was committed.
Infact, the law clearly states that between 6 pm and 6am, a woman has the
right to REFUSE to go to the Police Station, even if an arrest warrant has
been issued against her. It is a procedural issue that a woman can be
arrested between 6pm and 6 am, ONLY if she is arrested by a woman officer
and taken to an ALL WOMEN police station. And if she is arrested by a male
officer, it has to be proven that a woman officer was on duty at the time
of arrest.
It is good for us to know our rights. To what extent it comes of use
remains to be seen in any situation. Pls forward it to as many friends u know.
