“Where is the public outrage?”

Human Rights Activist Dr Farzana Bari questioned where is the public outrage against these gang rape incidents?

In another incident, a private bus company guard and driver raped a bus hostess on a moving bus in Vehari.

Deeming the incidents “horrific”, she said the “criminal silence on sexual crimes against women shows that we are the society of dead with no conscience”.

Where is the public outrage on the horrific incidents of gang rape of a woman in F-9 Park and the bus hostess? The criminal silence on sexual crimes against women shows that we are society of dead with no conscience.😢

“Victim blaming mindset”

Many social media users were of the view that this victim-blaming mindset is “a strong indictment of both our government and men in our society”.

F9 park rape: Easy availability of weapons, the idea that women don’t belong in public places, that any woman who steps out of her house is ‘asking for it’ or needs to be punished by harrassment and rape is a strong indictment of both our govt and men in our society.

• A girl was raped by two men in F9 park at gunpoint!
In the capital of Pakistan, our home!
RAPED!!!
And then…was told by the culprits to not step out at this hour. The victim blaming mindset – even the rapists are using it to deflect the blame.
What the HELL!!! #F9Park

What a country of hypocrites where even the gang-raping beasts in #F9Park don’t forget to do moral policing, after the rape but before leaving they lecture/sermon their victim girl “don’t go for walk after the sunset.”#Islamabad

“This country is not safe”

What happened at F9 Park in Islamabad earlier today breaks my heart and sends shivers down my spine. This country is not safe for our mothers, wives, daughters and sisters 💔

“This is why we need Aurat March”

2 men rape a woman in F9 park, Islamabad and then warn her not to be out after sunset. A bus guard rapes his own colleague with help from the bus driver.
But go on and tell me how Aurat March is wrong because women are so safe in Pakistan….. pic.twitter.com/Chc0mh5aRl

Pakistan often ranks among the most dangerous countries for women.
