India: Child Victim Being Forced Meet Incest Accused in the Name of Law

31 January 2014, 16:17, by Ammu Abraham

Have been hearing of this terrible instance of child sexual abuse from time to time; the whole thing seems so strange. Is no panel or board on child abuse involved? Is POCSA (Protection of Children Against Child Abuse Act) not implemented in Bangalore? India is supposed to be a ’child friendly’ country. Why is this little girl’s needs being ignored like this and her life, and that of her mother’s and brother’s too being ruined like this? Any judge should be alert to protect children always. How can he get away with such callous orders? (I am a Mumbai resident and activist)
