Women's Commission denounces the internet survey on "The most popular actress targets of indecent assault"

The Women's Commission expressed deep regret that a radio programme of the Commercial Radio had launched a survey on "the most popular actress targets of indecent assault" on the internet. This is a blatant act of disrespect to females and encouraging violence against women. Indecent assault is illegal and is a criminal offence. We believe that the community will not accept such notion. The Women's Commission denounces any acts that degrade the dignity and respect of females. We do not accept any such acts of blurring the lines of right and wrong.
