He was being sarcastic and at that point he didn't care about what's been shown in the drama as it was screwed up beyond repair. So he didn't take the MR or anything in that show seriously.
But MR is a serious issue. It is anyways considered non-existent in Ind & Pak & actual victims suffer silently bcz of fear of getting ridiculed & shamed. Since he is a journo so he has to be extra careful. He can have an opinion(better to share off camera) but in such sensitive cases he should not end up hurting the actual victims. Same goes for Amna too
. Then due to the backlash they made it look like angry consensual sex.
