Article (in Turkish with English translation) by Mahmut Şakar, 'Sexual Torture & Kurdish Women - A Sociological Study', submitted as an appendix on 5 April 1994. Şakar notes that Kurdish women who are stripped of their virginity after sexual assault are often the only ones punished within Kurdish society. Şakar also notes the lessened possibility to avenge such an act when it is committed by state officials such as in Şükran Aydın's case.
