This is disgusting. As a survivor of child sexual abuse and rape I am offended and disgusted by this comment.

For those who cannot read Urdu the dialogue basically says:

“Like a corpse cannot come back to life.. lost honour can never come back.”

The disgusting words used for rape in Hindi/Urdu is “Izzat luT jaana”
“Robbed of one’s Honour”needs to be BANNED!

Firstly NO HONOUR OF MINE WAS ROBBED WHEN I WAS RAPED.
NO HONOUR OF ANY RAPE SURVIVOR IS ROBBED.

THOSE WHO RAPED HAD AND HAVE NO HONOUR. THEY are the ones who should feel and be in shame. Not the victim.

I have a deep, genuine respect for @Hadiqa_Kiani philanthropy and persona.
She is an amazing, strong woman.
Sometimes we make mistakes and I believe uttering these lines is a hurtful mistake. And a disrespect to survivors. To me.

The narrative of SHAME that is dumped on rape survivors is horrible. It’s a burden we carry through our lives.

It took me years of therapy, prayer and coaching to come to a place of solid self worth and self respect within myself.

Today movements like #notmyshame Shatter the Shame that survivors of abuse and rape have carried. Allowing us to belong to a tribe that recognises, the shame was never ours to carry, or suffer, to begin with. People like @ejtayloruk work hard to build a community where survivors feel empowered and safe.

Please do not encourage this ugly narrative of shame for survivors @GeoTvNews @reportpemra you have a responsibility that comes with your power.

Many men and women watching this may have been raped and it’s the last thing they need to hear AND it’s a lie.

Izzat hamari hamesha se Mahfouz hee thee. Izzat unki luTee jinhoN ne rape kiya.

Our honour was and dignity is NOT lost. It is the perpetrators who lost honour and dignity by their ugly act of Rape.

Survivors are shattered physically, mentally and emotionally by rape. Their capacity to trust the world or even themselves is shattered. Their ability to live in their own bodies is shattered.

Statements like this cement and make permanent, the painful, humiliating, shame, survivors of rape are left with.

Allow survivors to shatter the shame. Allow them to heal. Please I beg of you, do NOT use such ugly lines in your dramas.
You are not only doing a deep injustice to rape survivors but also teaching and spreading ugly values.

Please remember iss khatoon ki izzat kahi nahi gaee.
This woman is honourable. She is not dirty or “used” because violent men forced themselves upon her.

She is already feeling violated and dirty, do not retraumtise her. Because let me tell you she is real, she is me, and millions of other men, women, children and people of other genders.

People who want to make films or dramas on sensitive topics like Rape, need to do their research and homework and work with survivors and people rehabilitating and facilitating healing in survivors, before they throw crap like this out into the open.

Deeply deeply offended and disappointed

Remembering #SZAB today, THE FOUNDER of Pakistan's nuclear program. His vision & unwavering commitment paved the way for our nation's nuclear capabilities. We should fully honor his remarkable contributions, a tiny glimpse in paid tv content is doing no justice! #NuclearPioneer

Some are rescued by the Supreme Court, while others flee to evade capture. However, there are those who, after enduring 12 long years behind bars, choose to embrace surrender with dignity and honor. This truly exemplifies the strength of character of all these people!

This is @AseefaBZ standing outside PIMS, manhandled - not allowed to see her father who was in NAB custody and hospitalized. Today, SUPREME COURT directed authorities to allow #ImranKhan to meet as many as 10 ppl at the Guest House, including lawyers, friends and family members!

I'm the foreign minister of Pakistan and Pakistan's foreign minister is victim of terrorism, as the son of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto. We have lost far more lives to terrorism than India has. Osama bin Laden is dead, but the butcher of Gujarat lives: BBZ
