Upset on how Gulalai is attacked for raising voice: Bilawal

August 06, 2017

CHITRAL, Aug 06 (INP): The way Ayesha Gulalai has been attacked for raising her voice is upsetting, Pakistan Peoples Party Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari said on Sunday. “If we want women of the country to progress, we should [at least] not malign them for raising their concerns,” Bilawal said during his visit. He added comments such as those making rounds should not be hurled upon women — their families — who come forward. He said an impartial probe should be conducted in the allegations, without involving politics. While talking about the parliamentary committee formed to probe allegations levelled against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairperson Imran Khan and leader Naeem-ul-Haq, Bilawal said he did not much about the panel. However, he added, there is a law on sexual harassment that suggests such committees.   INP/AK
