Considered for the TIME's 100 world's most influential people. A chilling testimony to the deepest levels of human cruelty, this is the testimony of Mukhtar Mai, a 28-year old Pakistani woman. In 2002 she was sentenced by Meerwala's tribal counsel to endure a collective rape in redress for an action committed by her 13-year old brother ?when in reality it was a show of power. After suffering nameless atrocities, Mai decides to forego the tradition of committing suicide to denounce the crime.
