A recent incident at a prominent fashion outlet in Karachi has triggered widespread anger after footage surfaced showing a woman assaulting a young staff member.
The video, which quickly spread across social media platforms, has drawn sharp criticism and raised deep concerns over the unchecked privilege of the elite.
The clip captures a disturbing scene: a visibly furious woman repeatedly slaps, kicks, and stomps on a male employee while others at the store remain bystanders.
Despite the physical aggression, the employee refrains from retaliating, appearing more concerned about keeping his job than defending himself. The indifference of witnesses—customers, coworkers, and security—has only intensified the public’s outrage.
Netizens have labeled the act a blatant symbol of class arrogance and systemic injustice. Many are questioning societal double standards, asking how the response would differ if the roles were reversed—had a man attacked a woman in public, would the silence still prevail?
As the video continues to circulate, the brand at the center of the controversy has yet to issue a formal response or offer support to the assaulted employee.

This silence has fueled further criticism, with rights groups, activists, and celebrities calling for the attacker to face legal consequences and demanding accountability from the store’s management.
Observers say the incident reflects a broader crisis, where economic disparity shields the powerful and leaves the underprivileged vulnerable to abuse without recourse.
If justice is not served in this case, many fear it will reinforce a dangerous precedent, where dignity is only reserved for the wealthy, and the poor must suffer in silence.
