Pakistani actress Zara Noor Abbas has voiced her strong condemnation of a recent harassment incident in Karachi, where a woman in hijab was targeted by a man on a motorcycle. The disturbing event, which occurred in the North Karachi area, has sparked widespread outrage after a video of the incident went viral on social media.
Taking to Instagram, Zara Noor Abbas shared the video and expressed her anger, stating, “Another generation of harassers is being nurtured on motorcycles.” The footage shows a man harassing a woman in broad daylight as she walks down the street.
In her post, Zara highlighted the negative influence such behavior can have on young minds, writing, “Children are like puppets; they imitate what they see, and this man on the bike is setting an example for the child with him.” Her frustration was evident as she added, “I wish I had the right to kill.”
The incident has drawn attention from other celebrities as well, with stars like Sajal Aly and Maryam Nafees joining Zara Noor Abbas in condemning the harassment. Despite the suspect’s face being clearly visible in the video, reports indicate that the police have yet to apprehend him.
This incident has once again raised concerns about the safety of women in public spaces in Pakistan and the urgent need for stricter measures to combat harassment.
