A local television presenter is facing heavy criticism for an inflammatory on-air suggestion that rape victims should not resist their attackers, and should instead accept sexual assault to avoid being killed – a reference to a brutal rape and murder of an 18-year-old woman in Svay Rieng province last week.

 

Hang Meas TV morning presenter Meas Rithy on Thursday was discussing the case of casino worker Sovan Somalin – who went missing after she hired a taxi in the casino town of Bavet and was later found dead in a small pond, face-down and tied to a rock – with his co-presenter Ros Sotheavy when he made the startling suggestions.

 

“If you happen to be in the tiger’s clutches, please agree with them and do not resist them. That will cause them to kill you – just try to save your life,” he said.

If the choice is between rape and life or rape and death?

A family member chose for rape and life.

Very happy to be alive, although it is still troubling her 25 years later, and will never leave her.

My wife's got great teeth (cracks crab sheels with 'em). Told her to play along and then chomp down on the guy's adam's apple and rip it out.

well yeah, if they are going to kill you for resisting they probably wouldnt have a second thought killing you to try and hide the evidence

Indeed. One suspects that the intent to murder is there from the start.

I guess this was in Cambodia. Nothing to do with Thai or Thailand this time. It´s enough here anyway. We just don´t need involvement when it´s not regarding the country.

Please don't sit on my sausage. Air dried sausages are they good for health? They aren't cooked ?

Happy day for any would-be rapists watching this story. 

What a moron.
