Marital rape and our laws

There is talk of a coming change to our marriage laws. To the extent the new law criminalises non consensual sex within marriage, it would in our view, be unconstitutional for two reasons. First, Article 22 Constitution protects freedom of conscience. This includes we say, the right to be married in accordance with one’s religious beliefs, especially where the belief was practised at the time the Constitution was passed. Since Christians and Jews are married on terms that exclude marital rape, a law criminalising non consensual sex within marriage may be seen as an attack on them.
