Fantastic news for women in Muslim nations! Check out this amazing development thanks to a recent television program’s influence on the culture:
More than 1,000 female prisoners are expected to be released this week on bail in Pakistan following a decision by President Pervez Musharraf to review a controversial set of laws affecting women. (CS Monitor Updated ACTIVE link)

Hi Geri,
Thanks for the article, I am just unsure what it is about. There is mention of a TV series and a barbaric rape law being rethought”. The information simply states that over 1000 women were released on bail in Pakistan. I was uncertain what the two stories had in common. Could you please provide more information?
Thanks
OOPs so sorry
