This may be the problem. I'm not sure there is much of a penalty for raping non-Muslims, under Islamic law.

The punishment for the rape of a Muslim woman under Islamic law is death - to the woman. Sentence is executed, usually, by the woman's relatives.

In order to accuse the assailant, she must secure the testimony of (I think) four men. After which, she will probably be stoned to death anyway.

There are no punishments for the rape of a non Muslim woman, as this is considered perfectly acceptable behavior.

The lines at rape crisis centers in Islamic countries are not long.

They execute the victim for fornication.
Would you like to reconsider?
