Multiple cases of sexual assault have recently resulted in significant legal consequences across India and South Africa. In Gurgaon, a man was sentenced to 20 years in prison for raping a four-year-old girl in 2021, with the court stressing the need for stringent punishment to deter such crimes against children. Similarly, in KwaNgwenda, South Africa, Lungani Dominique Xaba received a 20-year sentence for the repeated rape of a 10-year-old girl. In another case from Shakargarh, a father-in-law was arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting his daughter-in-law while threatening her life. Additionally, in Madhya Pradesh, a man was charged for raping a neighbor's wife under false pretenses of helping her husband, showcasing the pervasive issue of sexual violence in both regions. These incidents underline the urgent need for societal and legal reforms to protect vulnerable populations from sexual predators.
