Stop Rape

Wasi Daniju from Ceasefire, express the relationship between women and the media by saying.  "How can there be any justification in downplaying this woman’s violation to something that is made to sound more akin to a casual fling, a sexual encounter in which the woman involved had just as much say as the men?  That is, a vulnerable female detainee is presented as having had a choice in the matter of engaging in this act of sex with the two men, staff involved in her detainment, who abused her (abusing their position of power over her at the same time).  Are the Standard and BBC really suggesting that she had any element of consent?  Because that is certainly how their headline and description read."
