Plz do not share the video & picture of the victims!
We live in a country where women are abused & silenced. Where the leadership raises its voice to sideline domestic violence bills. Where abusers can get away with crimes because they are backed by a state that always tells them it was the woman’s fault.#ArrestUsmanMirza

imagine having to beg your law enforcement to punish sexual assault by having to trend a hashtag every time so they’ll notice. If you live in Pakistan, you don’t have to imagine. #ArrestUsmanMirza

The whole Usman Mirza incident is so disturbing, we’ve predators roaming freely among us while authorities continue to sleep until the civil society highlights the issue and force authorities to arrest them. Yet people question why women feel unsafe here? #ArrestUsmanMirza
