Ayesha Omar has consistently voiced her opposition to victim-blaming and sexism. Following a startling incident in Sheikhupura when a guy assaulted a school teacher wearing a burka on the street, the well-liked Bulbulay celebrity rekindled the discussion on victim-blaming and harassment.
The incident's disturbing CCTV film has once again shown the widespread harassment that women experience, irrespective of their attire.
Omar highlighted the moral policing that women often face because of their wardrobe choices on Instagram Stories. "So, it's not really clothing, is it? It's just that we exist. And their lack of control," she said, emphasizing that deep-seated sexism and a lack of responsibility are the real causes of harassment rather than clothing.
CCTV video captured a guy strolling closely behind a lady wearing a complete burka in Sheikhupura, Punjab, before approaching her side and making unlawful physical contact. The perpetrator left the area right away after the attack, but the victim was clearly horrified.
The people praised the Punjab Police for their timely response in identifying and apprehending the culprit.
Since then, the case has generated a great deal of controversy, with many social media users agreeing with Ayesha Omar that harassment is a reflection of the perpetrator's attitude rather than the victim's attire or actions.
In Pakistan, harassment of women persists in public places, regardless of their attire or location.
