Raoof Hasan, special assistant to Imran Khan, responds to criticism of the Pakistani prime minister’s remarks on women and sexual assault
Much is being made of comments by Pakistan’s prime minister, Imran Khan, on the observance of purdah in Islam and how, in certain cases, it may help in the avoidance of rape crimes (Outrage after Pakistan PM Imran Khan blames rape crisis on women, 25 June).
It is to the credit of Imran Khan’s government that a series of groundbreaking laws have been enacted in quick sequence by parliament for safeguarding human rights, the rights of women, minority communities and parents’ protection. This being unprecedented, it also speaks volumes of the unshakable commitment of the prime minister to the establishment of a just and equitable society where every individual will be treated equally.
