Arunachal Women Welfare Society demands a rapid investigation into the Kamba rape case

A CORRESPONDENT

AALO: The Arunachal Women Welfare Society (APWWS) led by its president Marbom Bagra on Sunday vehemently condemned the rape of a 12-year-old girl at Kamba on April 19.

Responding to assistances sought by the family members to take up the case, the APWWS members went to Kamba and interacted with the victim and her family members. The apex women wing of the district expressed their anguish over the way a mentally retarded minor girl has been treated. In a strongly worded letter to the district administration and police, APPWS has termed the incident as “a heinous crime” and demanded “exemplary punishment to the perpetrator of such crime against girl child”.

Members of a few other women organizations also met the family of the rape victim and called for a thorough investigation into the case in a fair manner so that such crimes are not repeated.
