Rare Broadcast Interview With Pakistani Rape Survivor Mukhtar Mai.
Democracy Now (reposted) 2005-06-21 8:28 AM

The Pakistani government is barring a woman from coming to the United States to speak out about her case and the plight of women's rights in Pakistan. She was gang-raped on orders by her local tribal counsel. We play a rare broadcast interview with Mukhtar Mai from her home in Pakistan and we speak with a Pakistani journalist who met with her in April.
