In a recent interview, Imran Khan, who studied at Oxford University and was a cricketer, blamed obscenity for the increase in rape cases in the country and also advised women to stay under veil. Imran said, "This society and lifestyle is completely different. So if you increase the temptation in the society to such an extent, and all these young people have nowhere to go, there will be consequences in the society." He further clarified his point by saying, "If a woman dresses too little If you wear it, it will have an effect on men, unless they are robots. I believe it is a matter of common sense.Khan's statement against women and the purdah system has once again sparked outrage on social media. Earlier in April too, he had extended obscenity to sexual violence, pointing to Bollywood. At that time his first and ex-wife Jemima Goldsmith quoted from the Quran as saying that the responsibility rests with the man. Reham Khan, who married Imran Khan in 2015, had said that the less he speaks, the better for everyone.If a man is wearing very few clothes, it will have an impact on women, unless they are robots. pic.twitter.com/2Bdix7xSv7
