Political violence and Torture and organized by the state and ruling government of Bangladesh violence is increasing against opposition political party leader and member and also alarmingly in many ways like extra-judicial killing, abduction, judicial killing, killing women, Rape, petrol throwing, acid throwing, killing through torching fire after pouring kerosene and petrol, trafficking, kidnapping, forcing to prostitution, blackmailing, dowry and fotwabazzi. It has turned into a social disease now. It is the duty of police to protect, but they themselves have killed minority people and political leader in their custody.
People including men, women, children’s in general are living hostage at the hands of miscreants. None of us regarding you and me are safe from this sort of social disease like torture, political pollution and terrorism. Come on! To uproot these diseases from our society, let us empower the women and increase the capabilities of people and create opportunities for everyone to make the administrators accountable to us, for building up a torture free society. Extrajudicial killing is an arbitrary or unlawful deprivation of life and simply a murder. Bangladesh has earned notoriety in carrying out extrajudicial killings.
According to information gathered by Odhikar , a reported total of 104 persons were extra judicially killed, between January and June 2015. Around 492 young girls and women were victims of rape and gang rapes in the last six months of 2015. About 2079 incidents of violence against women occurred in the current year during the same period of January to June 2015. Of them 99 incidents are gang rapes and 46 incidents of killings after rapes. Rape has been a major tool of violence and this incident is happening due to lack of implementation of existing law.
The perpetrators would bring to justice and provide exemplary punishment so that would not dare to commit such crimes any more. The number of rapes incidents occurred in the country was 393 in 2009; 593 in 2010; 508 in 2012; 696 in 2013610 in 2014 and 492 in 2015.
The rising trend of sexual violence against women reasons a culture of impunity apathy of law enforcers and administration typically mindset and social and political unrest are the major contributors to the malaise. The Government law enforcing agencies should be active. If they do their duty properly then automatically the number of violence against women will be less. There are many treaties and acts such as: Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading treatment or Punishment (CAT) Violence Women (VAW) and so on also Penal Code (XLV of 1980) contains provisions that defined torture, causing injury, abduction, murder, defamation etc. as punishable offenses. Violence against women takes place in most societies both physically and mentally. In a patriarchal structure of society, a man treats a woman as an object of sexual pleasure. This mind set must be changed. When women will be considered as a human being then prevention of violence against women will be possible. Torture is prohibited in the article 35 (5) of the constitution of Bangladesh, Article 5 of UDHR, Criminal Procedure Code, Obligation of compensation is mentioned in Civil Procedure, UN Convention Against Torture (CAT) and In the Religious and the Holy Books.
