‘It’s just a man’s life’: Woman says she was raped by her husband in India

“It’s a man.

It’s just his life.”

This is what my husband said to me.

He’s a good man, but it’s not good.

“I said, ‘You know what?

I’m going to tell you what I know.

I’m not going to keep you waiting’.”

His wife was in a position of power, he said.

She had to tell him to stop.

But the truth was, it wasn’t going to be easy.

“I have two daughters, and I know how hard it is for my husband,” he said, shaking his head.

“But I don’t think I’m the only one who’s been raped in my life.

I’ve been raped by my friends.

I know what it feels like.”

I was at a party, and the whole place was filled with men.

And I was sitting there with my friends, and one guy comes up to me and says, ‘Oh, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you’.

“I thought, Oh, I’ve got no right to be angry with him.”

The next day, I called the police.

I don’t know how I got to this point, but I knew that if I was going to stay silent, I had to speak out.

I knew I was not going away, but there was a lot I wanted to say.

So I went to the police station, and there was nothing I could do.

I was told that they were going to put me in a room and take me to the hospital.

I knew I could not do anything about it.

I had no right.

The police then made me stand up and walk towards them.

They put me on a stretcher, and took me to a room.

I wasn’t told what I was supposed to do.

They said, You’re a woman, we’re going to take care of you.

The next morning, I went into the hospital, and they had a doctor and two nurses, who took me back to the room and left.

I was very angry.

I didn`t know how to react.

I said to them, I was raped.

They didn`T believe me.

I went back to my house and cried.

They didn`ts even give me a name.

It was just like they had taken me away from my family and put me here.

“The next thing I knew, I started to panic, and my husband had called the ambulance.

The ambulance arrived, and two doctors came in.

They told me that I was in the emergency room.

They told me to come in and tell them everything, and if I don`t tell them what happened, I`ll die.”

The first doctor told me I was an alcoholic, and that I had been drinking alcohol for months.

The second doctor told us that I`d never been raped.

I said to him, I don,t remember what happened.

They asked if I had any witnesses.

I don`,t know what they were asking.

I told them, They`re not telling me what happened because they want to see my daughter.

They`ll take her away.

He went away, and he`s been gone for three months.

But there was no follow up.

I just said, I told you, I did not tell them.

I thought that if the police were going on with their investigation, they would know.

Then they asked if they could give me some blood.

I refused.

They took me in the back of the ambulance, and then I was taken to a clinic.

The first doctor was really angry.

He said, This is what you`ve been doing for the past three months, and you haven`t told us anything.

They said, Well, this is what we are doing, because you`re an alcoholic.

The next doctor was even more angry.

They went away.

I kept saying, I want to tell the police, I have been drinking for three years.

I`m not drunk.

They kept saying no, we don`ts want to hear about it, and this was the end.

I kept asking them, Why don`s they want me to be a witness?

I said, What are you saying?

They said that if you don`tray, you`ll be arrested.

I went back and asked them, Are you going to give me your blood?

And they said, No.

I got scared.

I asked them if I could go with them.

They put me back on the stretcher.

I told them I had never been sexually assaulted.

They never told me anything.

I think that was the most terrifying thing.

They let me go, but when I got back to school, they put me at another police station.

They just kept asking me questions.

I`m still trying to find out what happened to me after I`ve gone through this.

I want the police to know what happened
