Chennai, Nov 24 (IANS): The Child Welfare Committee (CWC) of Tamil Nadu has directed the Theni DSP to take action against accused Perumal (27) who raped a minor girl leading to the birth of a girl child.

The CWC has asked the police to take action under Protection of Children against Sexual Offences (POCSO) and report it within 15 days.

The 14-year-old Tamil Nadu girl gave birth to a baby on November 11 and approached the CWC to take the child as she said she did not have the means to raise the child.

CWC member B. Pandiaraja told mediapersons that a girl from Andipatti taluk said that her neighbour Perumal had given her food laced with sedatives and raped her.

The victim said that when she regained consciousness, she knew that she had been raped but did not inform her family.

    Victims are getting younger and younger. A 8 years old was raped and murdered last week. Unfortunately the bulk of rapes are happening in india nowadays, Inhumanity prevailing all around. Sad state of affairs. Hang till death... or else our girls are never protected..
