Dimapur, January 29 (MExN): Condemning the gang rape and robbery at Darogapathar here on January 18, Nagaland Alliance for Child Rights (NACR) has stated, “It is very disheartening to see that incidents of these kinds are still occurring in large.”
In a press release issued by its secretary, Liangamang Robert, NARC expressed, “Our state has just celebrated 50 years of its existence and it is important for the law enforcing authority to be more vigilant in tackling this barbaric crime.” It further urged every right thinking citizen to “pull our acts together to fight against this inhuman act against women.”
Meanwhile, NACR appealed to the authorities concerned to speed up the process of enquiry and bring the culprits to the hands of law to prevent such violation and abuse in future.
Lauds police action
NACR, a network of NGOs for women rights and children rights, also lauded and appreciated the effort taken by the police department in booking the three accused of the rape of a minor girl in Dimapur. However, NACR affirmed, “it is a matter of shame for our state that this barbaric crime is on the rise.”
“People who can perpetrate such heinous act do not deserve to walk free on the street. They have to be reprimanded behind bars.” Therefore, NACR earnestly requested the authorities concerned not to grant bails to the accused.
