‘Demons Exist Everywhere, In Every Community, Every Religion’: Hina Khan Reacts To Nishat Sexual Assault Case

Hina Khan on Tuesday took to Instagram to share her views on the sexual assault and murder that took place in Nishat, Srinagar, in Kashmir. The actress shared three Instagram stories in which she discussed about things like distinguish between rape and sexual assault, blaming alcohol for crimes, and more. She also once again posted about the Pahalgam attack in one of her stories.

The Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai actress shared a long note which read, “Can someone for gods sake teach these Morons the Difference between sexual assault and rape.. A Rape is a Rape. A Murder is a Murder. A Sexual Assault may differ in description but it's just the Precursor of Rape. It only means that the perpetrators COULD NOT do it rather than DID NOT do it. A Rapist blames everything else than Himself. Don't act like that Criminal. Don't use Alcohol to give the Criminal a 'Free Get Away Card'. Do not Justify Rape. Do not even Justify Sexual Assault. Not in the name of Religion, Community, Geography or Attire. These Demons Exist everywhere, in every community, every religion..lurking for Opportunity. Alcohol causes many things but it doesn't make a Good Man a Rapist! Stop Alcohol Blaming and Escapism. Good Men can Handle Alcohol just as they Handle Superior Physical Power compared to a Woman, they use it to Protect Women. A Rapist is not Less than a Killer. He's More. Nothing justifies his actions. it's high time we call out what's happened without mincing words just because it's done by a Kashmiri Muslim and blame Alcohol for your so called Agenda (sic).”

In her last Instagram story, Hina requested Muslims, especially from Kashmir to let people of the other community grieve and also pointed out that we all can coexist. She wrote, “lastly My humble request to all muslim men, women, grown ups in the country especially in Kashmir.. Thr are insane faceless trollers in every community who cross the line and spit venom, but please understand most of the people from another community are genuinely upset, people are hurt, people are furious, thr pants were pulled down, thr faith was asked, bullets were fired in front of there loved ones.. we are almost in a state of war.. so can we stop replying or reacting ONCE to these trollers and let the other community be and grieve.. can we coexist for heavens sake.. let's take the first step..let's be HUMANS first I am not asking anyone to apologise, it's a personal choice.. I did it coz I felt it.. but, if you can't say anything good, positive thn at- least STFU and sit down.. #CoexistancelsPossible (sic).”
