A girl named Dua Mangi was out with a friend Haris when 4 armed men kidnapped her and shot her friend 6 times as he came to stop them. The news along with the profile and pictures of the girl has been making rounds on social media as friends and family are desperately looking for information:
And while many are upset and scared at the sad state of affairs, some desi men think she deserved it and have made the most vile remarks under the posts:
So last night, someone i went to school with, Haris Fatah, was shot, and is in critical condition whilst his friend Dua has been kidnapped from a famous Dhabba in Karachi. The news was circulated to help search for Dua. But some ppl reminded us why Pakistan is in the state it is. pic.twitter.com/7XcKzCblt8

Umm, what even?
“Aisi nangi larkiyoun ke saath aisa hee hona chahiye” “stupid feminists ke saath aisa hee hona chahiye” You’d think one day the Pakistani man would just shut up. pic.twitter.com/qujRjjujpP

Empathy what?
It’s no new matter that ppl can be incredibly insensitive but these are surely new lows even for Pakistani men? Families and friends are going through the worst rn, Dua’s still missing and your input is “apna khana khud garam karo”?? And then they ask why Aurat March is so imp? pic.twitter.com/kiPrHjSdE8

This!
Tum burqa pehny hui larki ko nhi chorty
Tum darullAmaan me rehny wali ko nahi chorty
Tum apny khandaan main rehny waliyon ko nahi chorty
Tum apni bhen, or beti tak ko nahi chorty#DuaMangi #DuaNisarMangi— Reshail Muzammil (@reshailawan) December 2, 2019
There’s a dire need for us to improve as a nation:

Sick!
so these comments I read about #DuaMangi and her appearance probably being the reason of her abduction made me ask just one question."THAT LIL GAL ZAINAB FROM KASUR WAS WEARING WHAT WHILE SHE WAS KIDNAPPED AND RAPED AND MURDERED?" Please if you can't pray for her safety, shut up.

Some were appalled at the media being silent:
Wait so it’s normal for a girl to be kidnapped and the mainstream media to stay silent, and yet have the audacity to blame “feminist” for demanding justice and security for woman on streets #DuaMangi

We hope so too!
I hope this ‘Employee of Civil Aviation Authority’ is fired, jailed and is never allowed to work for anyone, ever! #DuaNisarMangi #duamangi https://t.co/XjHteWMEps

Judging others is our national hobby:
It is honestly nobody’s business what Dua was wearing why were they meeting or what they were doing. No one has the fucking right to take a gun to someones head and kidnap a girl#PrayforHarisFatah #duamangi #prayforduamangi

People were scared:
The kidnapping of #DuaMangi seriously tells us how unsafe and horrible our society is. Even posh areas like Dha are not safe anymore(lets just not talk now about how fearfully people would be living in common areas🙂)
— Khadijaaa🇵🇰 (@__deejavu) December 1, 2019
Is this Country even safe for women anymore? From children like zainab, jannat to teenagers like #DuaMangi and to even women who are raped in their graves! Where is humanity gone? Should we call such country a homeland? Home is where you’re safe, and tbh nobody’s safe here.

When will people stop victim blaming?

#DuaMangi abducted. Haris Fatah gunshot trying to protect his friend Dua from getting kidnapped and here we're as a society that is blind to any crime and intolerant of any emotional pain. People may not realize the damage that they are doing by placing the blame on the victim.

Desi society in a nutshell:
#DuaMangi – a young girl, got kidnapped & some people are saying that she "deserves" it because she wears sleeveless tops. Welcome to our desi society where the fingers will be always pointed towards the woman no matter what even if she's raped, kidnapped or harassed. Shameful!
