What kind of incompetent deputy minister is this?
If martial rape is a crime and there must be laws to protect the victims...
Then find ways and have discussions with Tommy Thomas on how best to amend the laws to bring justice to the victims and put criminals behind bars.
The deputy minister is a very I sensitive and callous in nature for making such a comment. Show some concern dungu!!!

No need to convict. Simply empower the wife to cut the thing off, that which is causing her hurt?..

With this extraordinary power, she might have 2nd thoughts, and maybe decide to reconcile. Instead of facing a permanent loss?..
