Ms Gulnaz of Afghanistan was raped by her cousin's husband, became pregnant and was charged for adultery. She was sentenced to 2 years in prison, which was extended to 12 years upon appeal. She gave birth to a daughter in prison. Mother and daughter were in prison. Ms Gulnaz had been pardoned by President Hamid Karzai after she apparently agreed to marry her rapist.
