Regardless of what we think of their laws, Saudi Arabia is a sovereign nation. However, I think it a human rights violation to punish any female who has had to endure a sex crime. That is my opinion. I could be wrong.

I believe she's being punished for being in the presence of a male non-relative, not for being raped. They are punishing the males for the rape.
And I seriously doubt she had a rape kit done on her. Only a small percentage of the medical practitioners in Saudi Arabia are women, and I seriously doubt women there expose themselves in such a way to strangers that may even be doctors. But I could be wrong.
