English actress Jameela Jamil has condemned the killing of Noor Mukadam that she is horrified by the fact that rampant violence against women in Pakistan no longer surprises her.
The actress posted the story on her Instagram that she is disgusted to learn the details of what happened to Noor Mukadam. “And even more horrified that this level of violence no longer surprises me, considering the ongoing violence against women in Pakistan and India,” she posted.
Noor Mukadam was the daughter of a former Pakistani diplomat Shaukat Mukadam who was brutally murdered in Islamabad on 20th July. The police arrested the accused named Zahir Jaffer from the scene. The case has prompted debates on the protection of women in Pakistan.
“I talk about it a fair bit and continue to urge men in the public eye to speak out about this,” said Jameela. “This is a men’s problem, but only we [women] pay the price for it.” The actor remarked that she is longing for a time when she would be “shocked” to hear about violence against women now that gender-based violence is commonplace.
