Others poke fun at what reprimanding the couple would achieve. Under what law will they even be charged?

Aside from poking fun people pointed out how no one intervenes when witnessing domestic abuse or partner abuse, yet a little PDA made the passengers ‘uncomfortable’.
a man hitting his wife on an airblue flight would have been met w averted eyes, shushing, 'ye unke apas ka maamla hai', cz it's completely OK and normal for impressionable kids to see women being treated like property as opposed to actual human beings worthy of love and affection

At the crowded Arrivals at any Pakistani airport, you can tell which one is a male passenger's wife because she's the only one out of all female relatives there to greet him who doesn't get a hug.#airblue #etribune

People really hit hard on those playing moral police. People asked if this the culture we want to promote where people turn a blind eye to crimes against women, yet a little PDA between a couple had people approach authorities.

A kiss in the #Airblue makes a Twitter top trend but the news of a gang rape & forced conversion of a minority girl doesn't get any coverage. As a nation, show of love is scary to us but violation of human right is in our norms. pic.twitter.com/dlOiZbLpsf

Humor is a way to breach subjects that are otherwise taboo. However, the actual gravity of the situation of law and order in Pakistan should not be laughed off. How many of you would rather have authorities focus on civil security before spending state resources on an inquiry into a couple kissing on a plane?
