"content": "At times, we are heartbroken to see the thresholds that are set for proving the Sexual Offences Act. I was a witness to one instance where someone argued that rape may probably not have occurred and yet this involved a minor because seemingly the hymen was not recently broken. There cannot be anything more uncivilized than that. So, as we enact the Marriage Bill which has very many interesting and useful clauses even when it comes to incest--- I am sure that, that is well taken care of and it is prohibited and criminalized. People will also desist from doing this. As much as this Bill is very good, I would like to put it on record that marriages may not be micro managed by a statute. It is the parties who are involved in marriage who should make marriage work and not statutes. I do not want people to be scared."
