While I don't condone violence as a solution, in a country where women are raped and then routinely executed for their 'crimes' often by the very same men that raped them, you have to admire these two young ladies courage. Though sadly it will probably be their last act of defiance against an unjust structure as both will most likely be executed for their crime.
