A FILIPINO woman was raped every two hours and 45 Minutes last year, a House leader disclosed yesterday, citing the latest official police statistics on the crime.

Deputy Speaker for Mindanao Daisy Avarice Fuentes said a record-high 3,164 cases of rape were reported to the police in 1999, 131 more than the number recorded in 1998.

Around nine women were raped each day in 1999, she said. “Ironically, that was the year when we started hauling off rapists to the lethal injection chamber.”

For the whole of the nineties, 24,630 fell victim to rapists, a number Fuentes described “as bigger than the population Of Trece Martires City.”

By region, Southern Tagalog topped the list of rape incidents last year with 402; followed by Metro Manila with 334; Bicol, 314; Central Luzon, 271; and rounding up the to five, Western Visayas with 267.

Southern Mindanao is sixth with 230 cases; Central Visayas, 202; Ceotral Mindanao 182; liocos, 168; Northern Mindanao,l 49- Western Mindanao, 145; Cagayan ‘Valley, 142; Eastern Visayas, 141; Caraga, 115-, Cordilleris, 85; and the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, 17.

All regions registered an increase in rape cases, except Western and Central Visayas, Western and Central Mindanao and the Cordilleras, Fuentes noted.

There were 1,814 cases of rape reported to the police in 1990; 2,026 in 1991; 2,1.49 in 1992; 2,285 in 1993; 2,494 in 1994; 2,346 in 1995; 2,414 in 1996; 2,913 and 3,031 in 1998, she said.

“The rape data show that more needs to be done in deterring rape than parading rapists and publicizing their execution. This is one crime that isn’t affected by any shame campaign.” she said.
