1Blaming Rape Victims in CambodiaFanomezan-Tsiny Ireo Niharan'ny Fanolanana Ao Kambodja
2If there is widespread outrage and protest in India as a reaction to the death of a young woman who was a victim of gang rape, the contrast is the situation in Cambodia where there seems to be little public outcry over rape cases.Raha misy ny fahatezerana sy ny fiihetsiketsehana mieli-patrana lehibe ao India ho fihetseham-po noho ny fahafatesan'ilay tovovavy niharan'ny fanolanana nataon'ireo jiolahimboto, mifanohitra amin'izany kosa ny toe-javatra ao Kambodja, satria vitsy ny hetsi-bahoaka manoloana ny tranga fanolanana.
3Rape cases are given low profile despite the report of the Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association (ADHOC) which documented 467 rape cases in 2011 and 320 in 2012.Tsy dia omen-danja ny tranga fanolanana na dia eo aza ny tatitra nataon'ny Fikambanana fampandrosoana sy ny Zon'olombelona Kambodjiana (ADHOC) izay naharay tranga fanolanana 467 tamin'ny taona 2011 ary 320 tamin'ny taona 2012.
4These figures could be higher since rape is underreported in the country.Mety mbola hiakatra izany tarehimarika izany raha mbola atao an-kilabao hatrany ny fanolanana ao amin'ny firenena.
5According to the group, rape cases often fail to reach the courts because the perpetrator is able to offer financial compensation to the victim.Araka ny filazan'ny vondrona, matetika tsy tonga eny amin'ny fitsarana ny raharaha fanolanana satria mahavita mandoa onitra ho an'ny nihara n'ny fanolanana ilay mpanolana.
6The Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) also attributed this to the fact that a family member is pinpointed as the rape perpetrator in the 53 out of 250 rape cases they documented between May 2010 to May 2011.Ny Foiben'ny Zon'olombelona Kambodjiana (CCHR) nandray izany tamin'ny zava-misy fa olona ao amin'ny fianakaviana no fantatra fa nahavita fanolanana 53 tamin'ireo tranga fanolanana 250 izay narakitr'izy ireo teo anelanelan'ny volana Mey 2010 hatramin'ny volana Mey 2011.

9Worse, some law enforcement officials are blaming the victims for being raped.Ny tena ratsy indrindra, manome tsiny ireo izay niharan'ny fanolanana ireo manampahefana tompon'andraikitra amin'ny fampiharana ny lalàna.
10Responding to a recent case involving a 19-year-old disabled woman who was raped in a banana field in the Kien Svay district, Kandal province, the district police chief Pam Sam Eth reportedly said:Raha namaly momba anà raharaha vao haingana mahakasika tovovavy sembana iray 19 taona izay voaolana tao anatin'ny sahan'akondro tao amin'ny distrikan'i Kien Svay faritanin'i Kandal, ny lehiben'ny polisy ao amin'ny distrika, Pam Sam Eth dia hoy izy:
11It was already 9 p.m. when was raped.Efa tamin'ny 9 hariva izy no voaolana.
12She shouldn't have been out so late.Tsy tokony ho tratra alina tahaka izany izy.
13Such remark reflects the attitude of some public officials when confronted with rape cases; and it deters victims from seeking assistance with proper government authorities.Mampiseho ny fihetsik'ireo manampahefana sasany izany fanamarihana izany rehefa sendran'ny tranga fanolanana tahaka izany izy ireo; manakana ireo niharan'ny fanolanana tsy hitady vonjy eny anivon'ny manapahefan'ny governemanta izany.
14Sadly, this attitude is not limited in a single district and there have been several instances when public officials are reported to have uttered a similar remark.Mampalahelo, tsy amin'ny distrika tokana ihany no hitrangan'izany fihetsika izany fa marobe ireo tranga ahitana manampahefana manao tahaka izany ihany koa.
15For example, the Secretary of State for the Ministry of Women's Affairs reportedly supported a public rally of more than 100 people who came out in the streets to urge Khmer women to dress more modestly:Ohatra, Sekreteram-panjakana ao amin'ny Minisiteran'ny Raharaham-behivavy no voalaza fa nanohana famoriam-bahoaka teo amin'ny olona maherin'ny 100 teo, nidina hatreny an-dalambe izy mba handrisika ireo vehivavy khmère mba hanao fitafiana maotina:
16Wearing short skirts and sexy clothes causes rape to occur, because all men, when they see white skin, immediately feel like having sex.Mahatonga ny fanolanana ny fitafiana zipo fohy sy “sexy”, satria ny lehilahy rehetra, raha vao mahita hoditra fotsy, dia mahatsiaro ho toy ny manao firaisana avy hatrany.

18Writing for The Cambodian Daily, Mech Dara and Denise Hruby quote a 2010 report by the Amnesty Internationalwhich sounded the alarm on the rising number of rape cases in CambodiaNanoratra tao amin'ny gazety Kambodjiana mpivoaka isan'andro i Mech Dara sy i Denise Hruby nilaza tatitra tamin'ny 2010 avy amin'ny Amnesty International izay nandefa fanairana manoloana ny fitomboan'ny tranga fanolanana ao Kambodja
19Amid a culture of impunity and widespread corruption, victims of sexual violence in Cambodia are often denied justice; struggle to pay informal fees for health services; and grapple to obtain assistance and support.Manoloana ny kolontsainan'ny tsimatimanota sy ny fihanaky ny kolikoly, matetika ireo niharan'ny fanolanana no tsy mahazo rariny; mitolona mba handoavana sara tsy ara-dalàna hitsaboan-tena; ary mamikipikitra vao mahazo fikarakarana sy fanohanana.
20Commonly, law-enforcement officials, including police and court staff, arrange unlawful out-of-court payments between the victim and the perpetrator (or their families)Efa mahazatra ny mahita mpampihatra ny lalàna, ahitana polisy sy mpiasan'ny fitsarana, no manao fandaminana fandoavam-bola tsy ara-dalàna ivelan'ny tokotanim-pitsarana eo amin'ny nihara-pahavoazana sy ny nanao fanolanana (na ny fianakaviany)
21The lack of effective investigations and prosecution further harms victims, who often live with the fear that the perpetrator is free to attack them again, with the additional psychological pain and a perceived loss of dignity.Manimba ny niharam-pahavoazana, izay matetika miaina ao anatin'ny tahotra ireo mpanitsakitsa-dalàna afaka mamely azy ireo indray, ny tsy fisian'ny famotorana sy fanasaziana matotra, ary tsy adinoina amin'izany ny fangirifiriana ara-tzaina sy ny fahatsapana ho very haja.
22Failures by the authorities, including in the criminal justice system, go unquestioned and become an extension of the initial abuseMandeha tsy misy fanontanitaniana ny tsy fandraisana andraikitry ny manampahefana, ahitana ny rafi-pitsarana ady heloka bevava ka manjary lasa mampiitatra ny fanitsakitsahana tamin'ny voalohany
23Another documented discriminatory statement is the proposal of the Phnom Penh Governor back in 2009 to ban girls under 16 year old from going out alone after 9pm.Fanambara-panavakavahana hafa voarakitra ihany koa ny tolo-kevitry ny governoran'i Phnom Penh tamin'ny 2009 handrara ny zazavavy latsaky ny 16 taona tsy mahazo mivoaka irery aorian'ny amin'ny sivy ora alina.
24His belief is that young girls are likely to show up at clubs, karaoke bars or other entertainment places where only adults should be allowed entry.Ny fiheviny manko dia mety hamonjy boaty na karaoke bar na toera-pilanonana hafa natao ho an'ny lehibe irery ihany ireo zazavavy ireo.
25He further asserted that this proposal is aimed to promote good morals in society.Ny fandresen-dahatra nataony moa dia hoe hikendrena hampiroboroboana ny maoraly tsara ao amin'ny fiarah-monina.
26However, the proposed girl curfew was criticized by many people who prefer that local authorities focus on law enforcement instead of merely blaming the victim.Saingy notsikerain'olona maro moa izany tsy fahazoan'ny zazavavy mivoaka min'ny alina izany fa ny tadiavin'ny olona dia ny hampiharan'ny manampahefana ny lalana fa tsy ny hibedibedy indray ny nihara-pahavoazana.
27The attitude of shifting the blame on women (the CCHR did not encounter any instance of rape involving a male victim or a female perpetrator during its case documentation), puts more women at risk.Ny fihetsika manome tsiny ny vehivavy (tsy naharay tranga hoe ny lehilahy no voaolana ary vehivavy ny mpanolana ny komitin'ny Zon'olombelona nandritra ny fanangona-kevitra) no mbola mametraka vehivavy maro kokoa mety ho trà-pahavoazana.
28This contradicts the government declaration that ‘women are the backbone of the nation'.Mifanohitra amin'ny fanambaran'ny governemanta milaza fa ‘ny vehivavy no hazon-damosin'ny firenena' izany zava-misy izany.
