Violence Against Pakistani Women

Violence against women is rampant around the world.Here in Pakistan, especially in the villages and other rural areas, women are still abuse, humiliated, beheaded, burn alive either with acid or kerosene.The worst part is that they were abused by their own family members, the people that are supposed to protect them, are the ones committing these barbaric crimes.To whom, they can ask for help?I really pity these women, I just hope, one day, they will all unite to stop this violence.But the process, is very slow.......because they are scared that they will be disowned by their family members and they have nobody to turn to.
