There are people who trust the Western justice system to deliver a proportionate sentence. They believe that such immigrants and illegals while needing some time to adjust and acclimatise to our Western societies, will eventually contribute to the economy and culture.

I am not one of those people.

They fucking know it’s wrong.

Under Pakistan’s, Indian, and Bangladesh’s penal code, rape is severely punished. Depending on the severity of the offense and the circumstances of the crime, the legal framework mandates the following penalties:

Pakistan:

Standard Rape (Section 376 of the PPC): Punishable by death or imprisonment for a term of 10 to 25 years. The convict is also liable to pay a fine.

Gang Rape (Section 375A of the PPC): Punishable by death or imprisonment for life or for the remainder of the offender's natural life, along with a fine.

Rape of Minors and Disabled Persons: Rapes committed against a minor or a person with mental or physical disabilities are punishable by the death penalty or life imprisonment.

Custodial Rape: If a government or public official takes advantage of their official position to commit an act of rape (such as custodial abuse), they face life imprisonment and a fine.

India:

General Rape: Rigorous imprisonment for a minimum of 10 years, which can extend to life imprisonment (meaning the remainder of the perpetrator's natural life), plus a fine.

Gang Rape: Rigorous imprisonment for a minimum of 20 years, extendable to the remainder of the perpetrator's natural life, along with a fine.

Aggravated Assault (e.g., causing a vegetative state or death): Punishable by rigorous imprisonment up to the remainder of the perpetrator's natural life or the death penalty.

Bangladesh:

Primary Penalties: A convicted rapist faces either the death penalty or rigorous imprisonment for life. Speedy Trials: The law requires the investigation phase to be completed in 15 days and trials to finish within 90 days.

Other Sexual Offenses:

Gang rape, rape resulting in victim death, or rape of minors also carry the maximum penalty of death.

Penal Code:

Under the broader Penal Code, rape can otherwise be punished by up to 10 years in prison in certain cases involving adults, in addition to fines.
