The Story in Brief
Jammu and Kashmir Police have arrested two men for the alleged sexual assault of a 12-year-old girl in Bandipora district. The police received information about the incident around noon on Sunday and started an investigation immediately, Greater Kashmir reports. Officials said the two suspects were not previously known to the minor. The accused were caught during overnight raids at different locations. A case has been registered under laws including those against child offences, and the investigation is ongoing.
The Indian Opinion
The case is a grim reminder of how quickly public interest in such crimes can wane. The real test will be whether the investigation leads to a speedy trial and conviction, or whether the case joins the long list of unresolved sexual assault cases against children. The number of cases disposed of by the fast-track court will be the only number that matters.
