Madagascar set to castrate child rapists after parliament passes law
- Madagascar's Parliament has passed a law allowing for chemical and surgical castration of those guilty of raping minors, a move supported by activists as a deterrent against a "rape culture."
- Offenders now face sterner sentences of up to life in prison, as well as castration, with a focus on protecting younger children.
- The law faced criticism from international rights groups, including Amnesty International, for being "inhuman and degrading" and not in line with the country's constitutional laws.
