Pak activists, experts term Anti-Rape Ordinance 2020 as eyewash ANI | Updated: Dec 16, 2020 13:51 IST
Islamabad [Pakistan], December 16 (ANI): Rights activists and constitutional experts in Pakistan termed the approved Anti-Rape Ordinance 2020 as useless and eyewash and ruled out the possibility of countering the menace through it. Such legislation is a mere eyewash as it did not help in protecting the victims, said Sadia Bokhari of the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) while talking to Dawn.
She added that public hanging and castration could not guarantee the end of rape cases, and pressed for effective implementation of the law that would create real deterrence for rapists.

Arafat Mazhar rejects sensational reviews of his newly released film on Pakistan s blasphemy laws. Feel like giving a course to all news platforms outside Pakistan on how NOT to cover conversation on blasphemy laws. @Reuters coverage of @swipefilm is so non-nuanced and insensitive and is now being printed in every next paper in the world, the filmmaker stated in a recent tweet. This is why we need local publications to write and cover a local film which is made for the local community. So if you re a writer/reviewer who doesn t have a white-savior gaze, please cover/analyze/review
