of transport is a huge issue, so that would be a positive measure. what we are asking for and demanding is far more. you just read the statistics. pervasiveness the of gender-based violence is of epic proportions at the moment. we require a concerted, directed effort that is far greater than those two measures alone could possibly provide. anchor: what about harsher penalties for perpetrators? could that serve as a deterrent? >> it could serve as a deterrent, but, once again, harsher penalties, maybe not , let me saylties

one of the things in south africa at the moment is less than 6% of perpetrators in facing any sort of criminal charges, so harsher penalties would mean conviction rates for all perpetrators of gender-based violence, and sentences that are quite comparative to the crime itself. at the moment, the rates are so low that it is not a deterrent at all. even that would be something that could be one of the positive things that could come out of this. anchor: how would you describe the way in which please handle such cases in the event they are actually reported? it has been a challenge with our legal system. it is one of the areas recognized as quite weak, and sometimes by the police themselves.

another site of secondary victimization for victims of gender-based violence. i think that area as well can be strengthened. not just the policing, but the criminal justice system itself seems to support the perpetrator more than the victim, because the journey a perpetrator has traveled to access and find justice come if at all they do. anchor: thank you for shedding some light on this for us. the program manager with action aid, thank you. >> thank you so much. anchor: pakistan's prime minister has told kashmir raise thehe will decision to strip autonomy next week. it has been more than a month since india evoked the regions status, causing fury in pakistan.
