Practical tips for safety of a woman:
- As per Indian Penal Code 233. If a girl is suspected to be raped or
getting raped, then she has the supreme right to *kill* the man, or *harm*
that person as dangerously and girl won't be blamed for *murder*.
- What should a woman do if she finds herself alone in the company of a
stranger male as she enters a lift in a High Rise apartment late at night She after entering lift must press all the buttons up to her
destination so that the lift stops at every floor till she reaches destination
floor. This will make impossible for male to attack or molest the woman.
- When a stranger tries to attack lonely woman in her house best
alternative is the woman should run into the kitchen where chili powder
and turmeric are kept. Also the woman knows where knives and plates are
kept. Use these as deadly weapons. Alternatively start throwing plates and
utensils all over & break while making noise. Also the woman should scream
as loudly as possible. Noise is the greatest enemy of a molester. He would
run away to avoid getting caught.
- Before getting into an auto /taxi at night note down its registration
number. Also use camera in mobile to take photo of driver and place. Woman
should send this to family & friend in the language the driver
understands. Call family & even if no answer pretend you are in a
conversation. The driver must knows that his details are with some one
& he will be in serious trouble if he does something wrong. The woman
converts potential attacker in to a de facto protector using this method.
- If the woman finds the driver taking vehicle on unknown street she
should use one of these. Purse handle or stole (dupatta) or collar of
driver’s shirt and pull him back so he feels choked and helpless. Top
button of driver’s shirt also make
him choke.
- If a woman is stalked at night she should enter a shop or a house and
explain her situation & predicament. Even ATM centers would be
suitable because it is equipped with close circuit television. Attacker
would know this and would be afraid of because of fear of identification.
- Mentally alert is the greatest weapon for a woman.
