The Dhaka Times Desk A strange country has been found where wife beating is legal. Some may not believe it. But it's true. The US state of Arkansas has such laws. The law that legalized wife beating.
The laws that exist in different countries around the world are often similar. The laws that have been enacted in many countries are similar to our country or many countries. But even among these there are some exceptional laws. Which are not only weird but also downright hilarious. Such a law has been made in the US state of Arkansas. Their laws are very strange. One of the most ridiculous of them is the wife-beating law. That law legalized wife beating. However, a condition has been added i.e. not more than once a month.
However, this law has recently been repealed by the Domestic Violence Act. Under the new law, physical assault on anyone except in self-defense is illegal.
In spite of having laws in our country, the way women abuse happens. If there is such a law then think what would happen!
