This week, host Akanksha Kumar is joined by Newslaundry’s Pratyush Deep and freelance journalist Devendra Pratap Singh Shekhawat.
The conversation begins with Devendra’s report on sexual blackmail schemes spreading from the upper echelons of Indian society to the poor and working class. As Devendra recalls his conversations with victims and perpetrators, the panel discusses the problem of under-reporting of sextortion cases due to social stigma, outdated legislation, and insensitive law enforcement machinery.
