Back-to-back rape cases in Karachi and Lahore respectively had united the entire nation at one platform to demand justice against ‘Rapists’.
5-years-old Marwah was kidnapped, raped, and found dead in Karachi’s area of Essa Nagri whereas a mother of three kids was raped in front of his children late night on Motorway in Lahore. Both incidents followed a protest on social media where people demand the public hanging of rapists.
Now, celebrities including Yasir Hussain and Feroze Khan have decided to come out on the streets against rapists.

On the other hand, actors also demanded the public hanging of rapists on social media to control this brutality in the country.
Feroze Khan urged Prime Minister Imran Khan to follow the ‘Riasat e Madina’ model as promised by him and hand rapists publicly. “I will always count on your statement that Pakistan will be ‘Riasat e Madina’ and if you don’t hang these monsters raping and killing children and women in the open nothing can ever be changed, just make one example. Public execution is what I demand Imran Khan,” he wrote.

Mansha Pasha highlighted how ignoring such matters have made this problem permanent.
The first crime is committed by the rapist.
The second by those who blame the woman.
The third by the officials who do nothing.
And the fourth by those who say nothing.The only one blameless in entirety is the victim.

Mahira Khan, Mehwish Hayat, Neelum Munir, and Ayesha Omar questioned the attitude of the police officer who blamed the rape-victim.
And what if a woman needs to go out at night for an emergency. What if she or someone in her family needed medical help? I can walk on the streets at 1 am in other parts of the world and feel completely safe but just not in my own country, even inside a car. #motorwayincident

Remember, CCPO Lahore was quoted saying that a Mother of three children shouldn’t be out the late-night or might not have chosen a link road to travel alone.
“What surprises me is that, being a mother of three (young) children and the only driver (unaccompanied by an adult male), why would she not take the GT Road that has population around it? If nothing else, she should have checked her fuel,” he had said and this statement was followed by immediate trend on Twitter ‘#RemoveCCPOLahore’.
