Pakistan's prime minister blames women for the violations being committed by men: They're putting on some clothes.

The former captain of the cricket team, now prime minister, was asked by an Axios journalist for “the epidemic of rapes” in Pakistan and responded by saying: “If a woman wears very few clothes, this would have impact on men unless they are robots. So says the sound mind. ”

He did not reveal what it meant with “ply clothes”, in a country where most women wear conservative national dresses.

More than dozens of women's groups have launched a document requiring apology from the prime minister, the Guardian reports, Periscopi notes.

Protests have already been staged in the towns of Karachi and Lahore.

Earlier this year, the prime minister was charged with <x0direction” by one of the top rights groups after advising women to be covered to prevent violations.

His public relations team said his comments were misinterpreted.

Khan had defended himself by saying that he had reflected on the concept of “bubble” in the Koran that wanted to use “mangte temptations in society” through the cover.

Victims of sexual abuse are often viewed with suspicion, and their cases are rarely seriously investigated in Pakistan.

This country is regularly among the worst states in the world in terms of gender equality.

National protests broke out in 2020 when a chief of police had rebuked a victim raped by a group that had driven by night without a male companion. /Periscope
