There is a case in Saudi Arabia right now where a woman accepted a ride from a guy he drove her to his house where he and 4 of his friends gang raped her. She got pregnant from the rape and went to the hospital where she confessed that she got pregnant because of the rape. She was sentenced to 1 year in jail and 100 lashes. They will wait until she gives birth to give her the 100 lashes. She is getting this sentence because she accepted a ride from a stranger and by getting raped committed adultery - even though she is not married.
There was another case last year where a teen girl was gang raped and sentenced to 1 year in jail and 200 lashings. She was eventually freed due to international public outcry.
In that part of the world your average dog is treated better than most women. It is pretty sad.
