KAFA's Beirut centre receives about 300 cases of marital rape per year; women forced to have anal sex, beaten by their partners or raped on their periods. Those 300 realistically constitute only a small proportion of those affected as reporting rates for rape are notoriously low, especially when there is no legal protection.
