A man was sexually assaulted by a taxi driver in Peshawar. In this rare case, the survivor reported the incident to police and swift action led to the arrest of the rapist. However, many cases of sexual abuse of men go unreported in Pakistan due to the idea of shame attached to it and how our society views masculinity.
