A couple of days ago, a female in her 20s revealed a beauty pageant organiser drugged and raped her at a Kathmandu hotel when she was 16. Though the incident took place eight years ago, the way she described the perpetration of rape against her showed that she suffered excruciating pain and anguish for so many years. She has now gathered the courage to speak out against her offender(s). Details of the alleged rape recounted by the victim on social media have sent her sympathisers, pro-women activists, leaders, civil society members and others up in arms against the alleged rapist(s). They held protest rallies in various parts of the capital seeking justice for the victim and punishment for the perpetrators.
