Female students protest topless against campus rapes[Photos]


Protests began on Monday at Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa against incessant rape on the campus. Topless female students with 'this is mine scrawled on their breasts' were seen among the protesters demonstrating against the rape culture on a university campus. The police have tried to disperse students using pepper spray and stun guns.
The students started demonstrating after a list of suspected rapists on campus was leaked on social media on Sunday.

Many students, who were raped on campus said they have reported rapes to the university as well as police, but that their complaints have been ignored by campus authorities, the BBC reported.



According to statistics released, South Africa has the highest number of rapes in the world.
