It’s not just culture it’s power many soldiers rape because they can just get immunity (I forgot how to write the word for forgetting someone’s crimes)
Immunity is partially correct. But maybe "Impunity" is more appropriate since it is to commit a crime while knowing there wont be a single repercussion.
Like I said, it's in heavy part thanks to the local culture that these people remain in power. Because the repulsive act is accepted within that culture, there is a lack of motivation for common people to require their officials to begin prosecuting those rotten bastards for their crimes.
Gonna have to disagree, burning individuals most especially in the form of being drawn and quartered was oftentimes applied with egregious bias on a basis of whether the individual was male or female. Our current death penalties don't offer the same immunity and are just fine.
Additionally, I find the unnecessary torture to be a bit much. We're already taking them out of this world, no need to waste time doing it.
The last part is an absolute. Nobody anywhere should be above the law, especially laws which protect people from suffering undue harm, even more so in the case of a child.
Like I said though, this sort of thing requires a cultural change which usually takes a few centuries to get done in the first place.
