Motorway rape case: Twitter shames CCPO Lahore for victim-blaming
A woman was raped on the motorway. The police blamed her. Twitter was enraged.
Unsafe while they're marching, unsafe while they're walking on the streets, unsafe while they're driving, unsafe when accompanied - women in this country are unsafe, and the gang-rape of a woman travelling from Lahore to Gujranwala, has sparked this concern in the entire nation.
Raped at gunpoint while she was waiting for help after her car developed fault; citizens are outraged at the heinous crime committed in front of her children.
Further adding fuel to the fire were the vile comments from the Lahore CCPO, a man in authority blaming the victim without remorse. While the nation demanded to hold him accountable; celebrities too, raised a voice against the safety of women in this country.
