Members of Pragatipara Sanghatanegala Okkoota have condemned the rape and murder of a minor girl at Devantagi village in Aland taluk in Kalaburagi district and staged a protest demanding stringent punishment for the accused involved in the heinous crime.
The protesters holding placards and shouting slogans against the accused reached the Deputy Commissioner’s office on Wednesday and submitted a memorandum demanding justice for the victim and her family.
This is the third such incident reported from Aland taluk and the District Child Protection Committee has failed to take steps to prevent such brutal incidents against minors in the district, okkoota leader Neela said.
