Reactions to Various Rape Stories in K. S. A. That Were Published in The News

Before we tackle rape cases in Saudi Arabia, we must first learn these three categories:

Real Rape cases- should come in the provisions of Hirabah for inflicting bodily harm and assault. Punishment should be death under hudud but since there is a victim, this falls under Qisas. In Qisas, the accused can only be spared from the death penalty through tanazul (forgiveness) from the victim or the victims family. The victim or the victim's family has the right to ask for diyaa (blood money) from the accused.

Rape with Consent, immorality, adultery and fornication- are classified as zina (illicit affair). Real rape victim might fall into this category due to the following failures; late filing of complaints, absence of medical report and no visible signs of struggle. The complainant (victim) is guilty of zina if it is proven that she has a relationship with the rapist. There are no private rights or blood money to be received by the victim.

False Rape Accusations (qadhf or slander)- are not qisas but are considered as hudud. These are punishable by jail terms, accompanied with 80 or more lashes to the guilty party. Many women always use the excuse RAPED by their employer as their alibi if they want to go home after many years of being undocumented. They prefer to tell their stories to the media rather than to the police or to their embassies. In most cases they will be repatriated with children they bore from their boyfriends. Sad to say, most of them were married to other men before.

Now let us talk about the rape cases that were published in the online news lately.

1. Reaction to: "OFW Rights Group Seeks Repatriation Of Rape Victims", written by Rudy Estimo (link:/saudiarabia/article141789.ece)

Rape is a very serious allegation. The writer should evaluate first if these rape accusations are all true before publishing his story in a widely-read newspaper.

What did these women do right after they escaped? Did they file a case against their employer for rape? Did they seek help from the Philippine embassy? No, they worked outside, had boyfriends and enjoyed the freedom that they could not avail while in their employer's house. Later, they got pregnant, sought help from their embassy and requested to stay in the shelter to avoid detention.

Who are the fathers of these children? Are the Saudi employers or the boyfriends whom they lived with after they had escaped from their employer's house?

Of the ten mothers, only one had claimed that her child's father is a Saudi. The rest of the children's fathers were identified to be Bangladeshis, Egyptians and mostly were Filipinos; yet all of them claimed that they were raped by their employers?

Did they file a case against the fathers of these kids? No, in fact these men are still supporting these women financially while the latter and their children are staying in the shelter!

One of the mothers insisted that the father of her child is a Saudi. Did she file a case right away? No, she ran away and worked outside for another employer. She claimed that she never knew that she was pregnant. She only sought help from the embassy when she was about to deliver the baby. If a housemaid got pregnant and it is proven that her employer is the father, then that would considered a rape case (for the reason that the housemaid is always deprived of the act to defend herself while staying in her employer's house).

Almost three years ago, I suggested to her that she must submit her son for DNA testing. The result would then be compared to the DNA of her Saudi employer. If it is proven that the employer is the father of the child, then her employer will go to jail and she can get a blood money. However if it is proven that the employer is not the father then she is guilty of "false accusation" and immorality.

She then told me that she would prefer to go home than to file a case.

False accusation or slander (qadhf) is a criminal offense in Saudi Arabia, and it punishable by jail terms and lashes. Immorality (zina) and prostitution (bighaa) are also punishable by jail term and 100 lashes. These are under hudud punishments which the penalties are fixed.

Who are the false accusers here in this news report?

Rape happens anywhere and Saudi Arabia is not an exception. Here, we have victims of real rape cases who are still fighting for their rights. They have proofs, signs of struggles and medical reports. They filed cases against the rapists and the victims are now waiting for justice.

Those fake rape claims wont help the situation of the REAL rape victims. If a REAL rape did happened, then who will believe us if 99 percent of those who claimed to have been raped are not telling the truth?

Suggestions for Resolutions: Staying in the shelter for three years is a long wait for these mothers and children to be repatriated. The Philippine Ambassador should have made a personal appeal to the Governor of Saudi Arabia Prince Salman, asking the good Amir for humanitarian consideration to repatriate the mothers and their children.

Recommendations: THE PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT MUST STOP SENDING FILIPINA WORKERS TO WORK AS DOMESTIC WORKERS ABROAD. Most of the distressed women are domestic workers. Most of these women who claimed to have been raped are domestic workers. Most of these women who ran away and got pregnant by their boyfriends are domestic workers. Besides, in the Middle East, the domestic workers are not included in the Labor laws. They are overworked without day-off and stayed in their employers house, 7 days a week. Most of them are not allowed to have a mobile phone. When a domestic worker is abused or maltreated by her employer, it would be too late for our embassy and even the authorities to respond.

2. Reactions to: Rape Victim Leaves for Philippines", written by Rudy Estimo (link: /saudiarabia/article59734.ece)

This is another shallow story about rape and the writer just relied mostly on the account of one party. The information could have been taken from the alleged victim or from just a gossiper.

Since the writer had mentioned about the intervention of the police and the Philippine Consulate, he should have tried to get a statement from at least one of these offices. He failed to do that and he just wrote his story as if the rape really had happened.

Excerpt from the said article "The suspect did not deny the charge and was asked to pay SR5,000 and issue an exit visa for the maid's repatriation."

1. If the employer had admitted to the rape then what was the recommendation of the police investigator or the prosecutor's office for public rights? How many jail terms and lashes?

2. Is the amount 5,000Sr given to the housemaid was for blood money or for back wages?

Committing al zina (adultery, immorality) and hiraba (real rape and other bodily harm) are hudud crimes. The writer should have asked the police why the employer was spared from punishments if he admitted the rape.

I sent an email to Consul General Ezzedin Tago about this story and he replied:

From: Ezzedin Tago

Subject: Resending: Reaction/Inquiry: Arabnews - Filipina rape victim in Saudi flies home

To: "Joseph Henry B. Espiritu"

Date: Friday, June 4, 2010, 8:17 AM

Joseph,

I was out of Saudi Arabia for official business and just returned last night.

As a general rule, we don't issue press releases on cases of rape. I agree that we should be asked before the consulate is mentioned in any article. Unfortunately, some in the media do not accord the consulate the right of reply to many of these statements.

I will check out the background of this case and get back to you.

Sincerely,

Ezzedin

If it is true that the housemaid had contacted the Philippine Consulate coordinator of the area, then the coordinator should not advise the housemaid to escape. Instead, the Philippine Consulate should send his officers to file the complaints directly to the nearest Police Station Civil Rights Department (hukok). The police would invite the employer. The employer would be advised to bring his housemaid to the Police Station. An investigation must be conducted in the presence of the employer, the housemaid and the officer of the consulate.

Rudy Estimo must learn how to be a responsible writer. He must be equipped with the knowledge of the laws and procedures before writing about a rape case. We have real rape victims who are still seeking justice in the criminal court. They are the ones who are hurt by these shallow stories. It is also not fair to destroy the reputation of a country and its people by an invalidated rape story such as this.

I believe in the freedom of expression. I believe in the freedom of the press but we must all be cautious that we must not hurt the feelings of innocent people.

Recommendations: Journalists, News reporters and NGOs must have the knowledge of the laws and procedures before writing or reporting a story about rape.

The Philippine Government must educate the officers of our consulate and embassy about the laws and procedures of Saudi Arabia before sending them here.

Again, The Philippine Government must stop sending Filipina workers to work as domestic workers abroad. Our women can do better than being housemaids in foreign lands.

3. Reactions to: "Filipino Schoolteacher Claims She Was Raped By Parent", written by Rudy Estimo. (link: /saudiarabia/article84254.ece)

There are so many loopholes in this rape story which makes it look as if its from a tabloid newspaper. The writer only relied from the information supplied to him by the group Migrante. He could have asked for information from the Philippine Embassy where the woman's complaint was filed.

We also had conducted our investigation about this story and we found out that this is a self inflicted case. A case caused by stupidity, adultery and immorality.

The sad thing about this story is that all persons involved were all Filipinos. The man is working in a Government hospital here in Riyadh. The woman was working as a teacher in a Private Philippine School, also in Riyadh. The woman has another boyfriend who is a member of Migrante.

During her free time (mostly at night), the Filipina admitted that she conducted tutorial lessons to the child of the Filipino. The tutorial lessons were conducted in the mans house. That is illegal in Saudi Arabia and they can be charged with zina (adultery, immorality and prostitution). On the other hand, the man claimed that the Filipina teacher was his girlfriend.

The Migrante boyfriend got jealous and told the Filipina teacher that the man allegedly posted nude photos of her in Facebook website.

The woman was so worried that this scandal might reach to her real husband's knowledge. With the help of Migrante, the Filipina went to the Philippine Embassy and filed her complaint against the Filipino. The Philippine Embassy officer advised the two to settle their misunderstanding by themselves. It is not rape but adultery if the two had illicit relationship. Besides, the alleged rape had happened a long time before the woman decided to file her complaints.

Discontented by the Philippine Embassy's advice, Migrante resorted to tap the writer of Arabnews to write the story of the Filipina. On July 15, 2010, the story "Filipino Schoolteacher Claims She Was Raped By Parent" was published.

Rudy Estimo should have verified the story by asking for more information from the Philippine Embassy or from the alleged rapist.

The Filipina could use this Arabnews story as a proof to her husband that she was really raped. She already left Saudi Arabia but her story did not end there. Migrante had spammed a hate email against the Filipino with the subject "Manyakis ng Riyadh (Sex Maniac of Riyadh)". They wrote almost the complete information and attached the photos of the Filipino in that email. The email spread rapidly that there is no chance for the Filipino to defend himself. His child dropped from school because of this embarrassment.

Migrante did stop their way of getting justice. They claimed to have submitted a complaint letter to the administration of the hospital where the Filipino works. Rudy Estimo of Arabnews then wrote this article, "Filipino Rape Victim Complains To Attacker's Employer". (link: /saudiarabia/article89650.ece)

And Migrante still did not stop there. They spread the alleged nude photos of the lovers in the emails to prove that there allegations against the Filipino are all true.

Recommendation: Most Filipinos know that Migrante is an unruly group who always resort to lies just to get the attention from the media, and to attack the Philippine Government no matter what, possibly just to get funding from their donors. I should not waste my time talking against Migrante but they have gone too far that they are already a threat to the Filipino workers in Saudi Arabia.

4. Now, I need your reactions to the following articles

OFW Group To Probe Pinay's Saudi Rape tale - /story/98358

RP Envoy Scores Pinay Over False Rape Claim -/story/100691/rp-envoy-scores-pinay-over-false-rape-claim

Note: I had an open communication with the officers of our Embassy when they went to Qatif to rescue this Filipina. When they were in the Police Station, I kept talking to Tom and Zailon through our mobile phones and I listened to every conversation.

I can attest that it is not true that Clarita did not receive her salary. She had an ATM card where she kept her salary as savings. The employer told Tom and Zailon that Clarita requested to open a bank account because she wanted to save her salary here.

Employer: How much is your money now in your savings?

Clarita: 3900 Riyals Baba.

Employer: When was the last time you checked your savings (ATM card)?

Clarita: Two weeks ago Baba. (That means she was free to go out?)

Employer: I deposited your salary for this month last week. It is now 4600SR.

Then they went to the bank to withdraw Clarita's salary and to close the account.

When the employer left, I told Tom to ask Clarita if she was really raped and that if it was true that she was videotaped by four men. She answered that she was not raped and that it was just a creation of her imagination because she wanted to go home. Tom and Zailon promised to Clarita that the embassy would help her fight for justice if she was really raped but Clarita insisted that it was just her imagination.

This Filipina admitted that she didnt want to finish her contract; thus she decided to use the story about rape. When asked about the alleged video, she answered that it was just a creation of her imagination.

I told Tom, that my suspicion was that this Filipina had a boyfriend and most probably she was pregnant; that she was afraid of the punishment; and that she could use the rape story for her husband to accept her back. I asked Tom to bring the lady for medical checkup.

Tom told me that he also had the same suspicion but the medical checkup might not help Clarita. So, I suggested Tom to let Clarita sign an undertaking that she was not really raped and that she just wanted to go home. Tom answered that they would do that but not in the police station or she might be punished for slander. Remember, false accusation or slander is a hudud crime.

So, I told Tom to ask the lady if she was willing to sign an undertaking that she was not really raped. The Filipina answered, yes.

The employer came back and gave Clarita 4000 Philippine Pesos.

Employer: I know that your house is from Manila, please accept this amount that you can use to travel home.

Clarita: No no Baba, I wont accept that. That is too much.

Tom: Tanggapin mo yan.

Clarita: Thank you Baba. I wont forget you; everyone in your family is so good to me.

Few days later this was the news from Migrante, "Group Says Raped OFW Forced To Do A Retraction"

/story/98647/group-says-raped-ofw-forced-to-do-a-retraction

5. Again, I need your reaction to this Article

"Probe Case Of Jailed OFW Rape Victim In Saudi" - /pinoy-migration/09/17/09/probe-case-jailed-ofw-rape-victim-saudi

Note: The alleged rape victim and a Bangladeshi national were caught in the laboratory doing an immoral act. Neri claimed that she was raped even if all of their co-workers testified that Neri and the Bangladeshi had a relationship. It was later found out that the Neri was already four months pregnant when she was arrested for immorality case. Still, Neri insisted that she was raped.

6. Here is the latest rape news from Migrante, for your reaction

OFWs seek probe on abduction-rape of 4 RP nurses in Saudi

/story/202720/probe-sought-on-abduction-rape-of-4-rp-nurses-in-ksa

and here is the response from our Embassy:

In such a new field, the user is the original content. Yahoo's problems and another was in the Internet industry has a popular forerunner of similar, that is America online (AOL). The two companies have agile use of the user change to the way the great opportunity-reading from the traditional to the network news newspaper important transition opportunities, but in the Internet users and advertisers to mobile phones and social network in transition, but have not effectively capture these opportunities.

An Introduction to Link Journalism

Taking up the hyperlink philosophy of the Web to an unexpected extent, news organizations are gradually becoming comfortable linking to competitors, acting to all intents and purposes like aggregators. Link journalism is built on the implicit concession that humans cannot cope with the immense amount of information that is available on the Web and moreover they cannot search manually billions of Web pages for the information they look for. This new form of journalism links to other reporting on the Web to improve, complement, source or enrich a journalists original story.

Journalists can use the advanced technology and the free web tools of Publishing 2.0 platform to complement their stories with links of appropriate and appealing content. The technology of Publishing 2.0 enables the direct addition of links in the form of widgets, sidebars, or any other form. Besides, journalists can save and organize their links to their Web content, collaborate with other, non-affiliated journalists on a story, and publish links on their news sites, which they can later share on social networking websites.

More important than the technology used in link journalism are the reasons that news organizations increasingly embrace the Web culture and decide on tying the Web together. The value of link journalism lies in the fact that journalists use their single voice to filtering the Web because they have realized the editorial influence of the link.

A huge part of the journalists job is to filter all the information that is associated to their community and hand over the significant parts to their readers. By using link journalism, journalists can distribute the best links related to their stories and, in return, they are treated by their readers as first-class citizens by enjoying repeated visits to their news sites. In effect, their websites become a point of connection where their readers can find any sort of interesting streams.

The development of blogging has increased the use of links and hyperlinks for the promotion of journalistic and writing content as well as the revenues from contextual advertising such as Google AdSense. Readers who are consistently sent to media websites for good quality content return to read more. This builds consistent traffic to websites and although it took quite sometime for journalists to realize this, they found their way to link journalism. Today, linking out is a regular feature of the majority of news websites.

Besides, with link journalism, journalists can establish direct connections with their local online community. Posting links about local businesses, firms, organizations, and government institutions is the least of effort required by journalists to participate in the local online community and connect with their readers. The more a journalist digs into a story to link it to relevant content created by people on his/her story, the more the possibility for a big upside to link to community members.

Another important consideration for using link journalism is that news organizations are not anymore the monopolistic source of information they used to be. In such frantic times, readers look for instant information that can be offered from resourceful news channels locally, nationally, and globally. Over time, readers become more sophisticated and demanding and although they know that news organizations dont know everything, they know that they have many alternative options to search for the information they look for. Journalists can filter the information, check the sources, and link the most reliable information to their websites so as to disseminate the best available information to their readers. Considering the vast amount of information available on the Web, this is only feasible with link journalism.

Yet, journalists do not make the most of link journalism as websites still do not offer full integration of their links into their work processes. One way to solve this issue is if journalists save their links and editors publish them. However, this is also debatable for numerous reasons.

First, many journalists do not save links as part of their routine work practices, mainly because it is time consuming. Secondly, many journalists do not want to share their links on the Web, particularly if they are working on a confidential story. Thirdly, many journalists consider that saving links its not journalism at all.

Most people respect the attempts of journalists to bring reliable information to the world and make sense of it. Journalists add value to society in any form they use, print or online journalism. However, by making the most of link journalism they provide a way to readers to access the most interesting and significant information available on a regular basis. Besides, link journalism offers the advantage of higher search rankings on the Web.

Conclusively, link journalism is a powerful tool that makes the life of journalists a lot easier. Through a two-way interaction with their readers, journalists get ideas about what link they should post next and practically they save time on brainstorming. Besides, by being constantly present in the local link economy, they make it easier for their readers to become their sources and get the answers for them, thus saving them work. By linking their readers to the best information available on the Web, journalists keep them returning for more, drawing more traffic to their websites and ultimately, making more money.

The Most Powerful Facebook Marketing Tool - Marketing - Social Marketing

Facebook has always seemed to attract media attention. Whether it concerns new privacy changes or CEO muck ups, journalists have pounced on Facebook. As it moves past the 500 million member mark though, it seems the media are not the only ones focusing on Facebook. For a long time, internet marketers have chosen to keep their distance from Facebook's younger crowd and privacy rules. But a small number of underground marketers are quietly making an absolute mint over Facebook, keeping their methods of success a secret. In this article I am going to discuss what I believe is the most viral tool for Facebook marketing available online today. Not only is this tool powerful by Facebook's standards though, I believe that this tool is also the most powerful online today.

Facebook fan pages have been around now for a very long time, but it was only a few months ago that I saw their potential for online marketing. I was looking through my news feed and as I did, something caught my eye. I saw that a friend of mine had joined a quite humorous Facebook fan page; curious, I clicked the page's link. To my astonishment this page had only been running for 24 hours and had already reached over 100,000 fans. I refreshed the page a few times to get a feel for the rate of growth and gauged that over 100 new fans were joining the page each second. It was simply incredible. I returned to that Facebook fan page five days later to find that it had over one million fans. This was the time that I realized the true power of Facebook fan pages. It was also the time I decided to switch my focus to working out how these fan pages could be utilized in my online marketing campaigns.

Facebook Fan Pages have a huge potential to be used as tools for online marketing. I want you to think of a Facebook member like you would the centre of a spider's web. Each person they know is a thread connected to them, and each of those people knows dozens more people. All are interconnected to create an entire web of links and networks. There are millions of these on Facebook, and each has access to a certain amount of people. When someone updates their profile or adds a link or posts a comment, that shows up on the news feed of everybody else on their network. Every time a Facebook account is created, a new network is added to the Facebook world. A network's activity can be viewed using the unique news feed which every Facebook member sees when they log into their account. It's a simple way to tap into hundreds of users with just one profile.

If you would like to find out more about how you can make money using Facebook Fan Pages you can download Sam Bakker's new blueprint called "Network Quake Blueprint" here. Alternatively if you would like to read more about "Facebook Fan Pages" you can at SamBakker.com.
