The Bar Council of India (BCI) has written to the Lieutenant Governor, Delhi and Commissioner of Police, Delhi, urging them to depute their finest team and officers to investigate into the heinous incident of rape and attempt to murder of a lady advocate in Jangpura Extension, Delhi.
“What is unfathomable and difficult to comprehend is that when during Lockdown, there is police manning the entire city of Delhi, why was there such a laxity in the vicinity where the crime occurred.. In spite of so much of police presence, it is apparent that there was no fear of the police in the minds of the criminal.”, the Bar Council of India has remarked.
The Bar Council of India has suggested deployment of anti-rape, anti-molestation team around the clock in all vicinities throughout the country.
“We as a fraternity and as citizens also are willing to come forward, and we have to indeed step forward to assist your machinery, but the lead is expected to be taken by you.”, the letter of bar council of India has stated.
The Bar Coucil of India has urged that the matter be investigated thoroughly and urgently and the guilty be arrested.
“My urgent and fervent request to you would be depute your finest team and officer available to investigate this case so that the perpetrator of this heinous crime can be traced out and arrested and given a punishment adequate in law for committing such heinous crimes.”
Request is also made to provide full protection to the victim.
