Now Bangladesh has the rule of a death sentence for all rapists

With the increase in the crimes of rape, the country of Bangladesh has now made a new rule relating to the punishment of rapists. Bangladesh's Cabinet on Monday signed an increase in the maximum punishment in rape cases to death from life imprisonment after a series of recent sexual assaults intrigued protests on streets and in social media in the nation.  Cabinet spokesman Khandaker Anwarul Islam said President Abdul Hamid most probably will issue an ordinance revising the Women and Children Repression Prevention Act because Parliament is not in session.

Under the present law, the highest punishment in rape cases is life imprisonment, other than the cases in which the victim dies, when capital punishment is allowed. Law Minister Anisul Huq said the president is expected to issue the ordinance on Tuesday.
