Pakistan’s PM Imran Khan has become a victim of criticism of his former wives by making statements on rape and women’s clothes. Imran’s first wife has told her husband to cover men by quoting the Quran. The second former wife has asked to keep her mouth.
Islamabad Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan is badly trapped by giving a statement on the rape. In the midst of worldwide criticism, Imran Khan’s first ex-wife Jemima Goldsmith has also cast him. Jemima quoted the Quran as saying that men have been taught to cover their eyes and not to cover women. At the same time, the second ex-wife of Imran has instructed the PM to keep his mouth shut. Earlier, Imran Khan had said that Pakistani women should be veiled to avoid rape.
Jemima attacked Imran Khan vigorously by tweeting. He quoted a verse from the Quran saying that it is the responsibility of men to cover the curtain. Jemima said, ‘Tell your followers that they should exercise restraint on their eyes and keep their private part on the screen.’ She also said that the Imran Khan whom she knew used to talk about the curtains on the eyes of men. Later, Imran Khan’s second ex-wife Reham Khan also took a jibe at Jemima, who was seen in clothes from head to toe during her stay in Pakistan.
Reham Khan said, ‘Today a young girl said that she has not said that the woman should be veiled.’ Reham advised Imran that the less he speaks, the better it will be for everyone. Earlier, Imran Khan blamed India and Europe for the increasing obscenity in Pakistan. During direct communication with the public, Imran Khan said in response to a question that he needs public support to stop the incidents of increasing rape in the country.
I’m hoping this is a misquote/ mistranslation. The Imran I knew used to say, “Put a veil on the man’s eyes not on the woman.” https://t.co/NekU0QklnL
