I just signed an online
petition to take a stand against this horrific injustice! Please do your
part and stand up to this by putting your name to this petition.
It's hard to believe, but a
15-year-old rape survivor has been sentenced to be whipped 100 times in public! Let's
put an end to this lunacy by hitting the Maldives government where it hurts:
the tourism industry.
The girl's stepfather is
accused of raping her for years and murdering the baby she bore. Now
the court says she must be flogged for “sex outside marriage” with a man who
has not even been named! President Waheed of the Maldives is already feeling
global pressure on this, and we can force him to save this girl and change the
law to spare other victims this cruel fate. This is how we can end the War on Women – by standing up every time an
outrage like this happens.
Tourism is the big earner
for the Maldives elite, including government ministers. Let's build a
million-strong petition to President Waheed this week, then threaten the islands' reputation through
hard-hitting ads in travel magazines and online until he steps in
to save her and abolish this outrageous law. Sign now and share this with everyone to get us to a million!
Make a real difference today and sign the
petition!
Blessings!
