New Delhi: In yet another dim allegation on India, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has claimed that Bollywood movies are one of the reason behind the rise in sex crimes in Pakistan.

In a YouTube address, Khan blamed the content from Bollywood and Hollywood for the spurt in sex crimes relating to paedophilia and child pornography in the country.

He said that the primary reason for the increase in drug abuse in the country is mobile phones, which is making some damaging content available to the young generation.

“It is very important to realise that a new challenge is seeping in the country,  through mobile phones. Due to availability of phones, such content is accessible to kids which was never there in the history of mankind,” Khan said.

He said that problem of sex-crimes is skyrocketing in Pakistan. There are many cases of child pornography, paedophilia and other such crimes.

“What we are doing is we are taking content from outside. Content first comes in Hollywood, then Bollywod and then in Pakistan. People of the country don’t understand such content because they don’t understand Western civilisation. They don’t realise that we are importing the most harmful thing from the Western civilisation,” he said.

Meanwhile, Pakistan has urged the US to get it off the grey list of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), which monitors global money laundering and terror financing, it was reported.

Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi said at a news briefing here on Friday night that Pakistan hoped the US would back its efforts to get it off the list at the FATF's Beijing meeting next month, Dawn news said in a report on Sunday.

"This meeting is very important for us as it leads to a plenary meeting in Paris in April where the world body will decide whether Pakistan remains on the list or is taken off," he said.

The FATF has placed Pakistan on a list of countries that have failed to eradicate money laundering and where terrorists can still raise funds for their activities.
