‘PM Khan’s government took strong measures to stop rape’

Islamabad (HRNW) PTI women lawmakers said Tuesday that Prime Minister Imran Khan’s government took “strong” and “positive” measures to stop rape in Pakistan.

“The government took strong and positive measure to stop rape through a process of legislation,” PTI lawmaker Maleeka Bukhari said a day after PM Khan came under criticism for his remarks linking men’s “temptation” in society with women’s clothes.

“If a woman is wearing a very few clothes, it will have an impact on men unless they are robots,” PM Khan had told Axios on HBO in an interview. “I mean it is common sense.”

We have made a law that bounds the courts not to give value to character assassination of women in rape cases, said Bukhar while addressing a press conference with other women lawmakers.

She said that PM Khan believes victim-blaming and character assassination should not be done and he made us make the law.
