Description: Allow me to comment on the bizarre acts that happened on January, 17 where women’s rights were violated in a shameful manner. Actually 17 January happens to be my birthday. I was in an internet café at around half past one in the afternoon and I happened to be wearing jeans.
Without suspecting anything, I stepped out the car and innocently passed some men and vendors. I guess they were wondering how on earth I could wear trousers on a weird afternoon like that one. As I was surfing the internet, happily going through the list of those that wrote on my wall on Facebook, wishing me happy birthday, I overheard some women saying there is violence in town and women wearing trousers were undressed.
