You are incorrect in assuming that if a woman dresses modestly
and only goes out accompanied by a brother or father that rape
will end.

I have heard of instances of elderly women getting raped and
*generally* elderly women dress modestly (of course they don't
wear veils but I have seen many wearing scarves :-) ). 

Women are frequently raped by someone they are familiar with 
-- father, brother, husband, boyfriend, etc.
