It is not overly dramatic to say that not a single day goes by without reports of sexual violence -- from bouts of domestic violence and date rape to homicides committed against women and even young girls.
Late last month, a 12-year-old student at a state boarding school in Phatthalung was allegedly sexually assaulted by a senior student, a 14-year-old boy who had a previous record of sexual assault. A few of her friends helped keep guard to make sure the boy had his way.
