Child Rights Body To Probe Badlapur Sex Assault On Two Kindergarten Girls

New Delhi: Internet was restored in Mahashtra’s Badlapurstrict after it was suspended as tensions simmered in the town over the school sweepers sexually assaulted two kindergarten girls, both aged four. The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) said it would send a team to Badlapur for an inquiry into the case.

Local train services on the Ambernath-Karjat section resumed after 10 hours as protesters held a rail roko protest at the Badlapur railway station

The incident came to light after one of the girls narrated the ordeal to her parents. The accused, Akshay Shinde, was arrested on August 17.

The school management suspended the principal, a class teacher, and a female attendant, over the incident. The accused, Akshay Shinde, was appointed on August 1 on a contractual basis.

Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray on Tuesday demanded that the sexual abuse case of the two girls be fast-tracked and speedy justice ensured to the victims. He claimed the school where the girls were sexually abused was linked to BJP leaders. He alleged politics was played over crime against women by targeting certain states.
