Karabus thanks South Africa Prof Cyril Karabus   Prof Cyril Karabus thanked South Africa on Friday for its support, and said this had been critical for his release from the United Arab Emirates.   "I really must thank everybody. Your support has just been fantastic," the 78-year-old, who wore a checked shirt and jeans, said at Cape Town International Airport.   Karabus touched down just before noon, looking exhausted, but relieved after his long flight.   The paediatric oncologist had been detained in the UAE since 18 August, after being sentenced in absentia for the death of a Yemeni girl he treated for leukaemia in 2002.   He was acquitted on 21 March, and won the case again on appeal, but his return to South Africa was delayed because he was on the UAE's database as a fugitive from justice.   There were also administrative delays in obtaining his passport from UAE authorities, and problems with his visa.   Karabus said the ordeal had affected him, but not too much.   "I'm a fairly stable, or unfeeling if you like, person, so it probably had more impact on my wife and kids than on me," he said.   "It's been nine months of my life: almost the time for the gestation of a baby," he joked.   He said there had ...

Men and women are precious creatures begotten by the almighty. They are both fruit of God’s will and saved by Christ’s sacrifice. They are loved equally and totally by our Lord no matter their sex or gender. And yet, women are subjected to horrors beyond comprehension. They live in lives torn between embracing God-given freedom and the constant threat of rape imposed upon their daily lives by men. How many women in your life have been the victim of sexual violence? How many women in your life have been made to feel uncomfortable walking home alone or verbally harassed on the street? How often are your eyes exposed to exploitation of women in advertising, violent pornography, or the media? Statistically, wherever you’re living in the world, you know women, or are one, who has been the victim of male domination.
