A disturbing video has caught a man in Pakistan in an act of groping a burqa-clad woman in broad daylight. The horrific incident has taken place in Pakistan’s capital Islamabad. The video is being angrily shared on social media.
The video shows the woman walking on the street. The man can be seen approaching the woman from behind and groping her. The woman struggles and pushes the man away with great effort after which he runs away.
Social media users are reacting angrily and condemning the lewd behaviour of the unidentified man.
Senior Pakistani journalist Hamid Mir, in response to a tweet that posted the video, said that the incident is a challenge for all men to find the culprit, punish him, and make him into an example for others.
The video has again brought to fore the issue of women’s safety in Pakistan.
