Addabaazi on Increasing Rapes
Tue Aug 7, 7:30 PM
Lamakaan Programming Team
The recent nightmarish stories of sedating, drugging, beating, raping of young children at Muzaffarpur Children's Shelter Home came as a shock to the nation.

The Perpetrators, who ran the shelter, sexually exploited, systematically abused the power and raped minors for several months.

The shelter home came under the spotlight following a social audit report by TISS which detected large-scale complaints from inmates of sexual exploitation. Medical examination of the inmates confirmed sexual exploitation in the case of 30 of the 44 girls. The police registered a case against 11 people including Brajesh Thakur and Madhu Kumari on May 31. All 44 girls have since been shifted to short-stay homes in Madhubani, Patna and Mokama.

These horrifying tales of rapes reflect where India is heading, to an unsafe place for girls/women and children.

We invite you to this Addabaazi, an informal discussion on this topic.

ALL ARE WELCOME!!!
