Delhi minor rape: Swati Maliwal, Chairperson of Delhi Commission for Women on Tuesday wrote to Union Home Minister Amit Shah in connection with a Delhi government officer allegedly raping a minor girl and demanded that medical treatment of the girl should be done in AIIMS.
In her letter, Mailwal demanded that she should be allowed to meet the minor girl or her family, medical treatment of the girl should be done in AIIMS or a team from AIIMS should see her and an inquiry should be conducted on delay in arrest of the accused Delhi govt official by Delhi Police.
The DCW chief has also demanded an inquiry into the delay in arrest by Delhi Police.
Premoday Khakha -- a deputy director in the city government's women and child development department -- allegedly raped the girl several times between November 2020 and January 2021, according to the Delhi Police. His wife allegedly gave the girl medicine to terminate her pregnancy. Khakha and his wife Seema Rani were arrested on Monday.
