COMSATS lecturer suspended for quizzing students about incest. In a bizarre incident in the country’s federal capital, a lecturer at Comsats University Islamabad has been suspended after giving students a quiz exam that included questions about incest.
The quiz got shocked responses as it touched a topic considered taboo in the modern world.
The paragraph titled ‘The Julie and Mark Scenario’ explained the bizarre situation. “Julie and Mark, who are siblings decide that it would be interesting and fun if they tried making love. At the very least, it would be a new experience for each of them. Julie was already taking birth control pills, and Mark uses a condom,” the section of the Quiz reads, asking students to share views on the sexual intercourse between the siblings.
The varsity reportedly informed the Ministry of Science and Technology for the controversial question in the English composition Quiz, which prompted action.
