Infant rape case: DCW takes suo-moto cognizance

New Delhi [India], Nov 15 (ANI): The Delhi Commission of Women (DCW) on Wednesday took suo-moto cognizance of the 18-month-old's rape case in Hauz Khas Village of south Delhi.

The issue has been brought to the notice of the commission that the Crisis Intervention Centre Counsellor of the Commission was not informed about the incident, a letter issued by DCW chief Swati Maliwal read.

The DCW sought the reply of police on such gross negligence within seven days of the receipt of this letter, failing which appropriate action under the law will be initiated by the commission.
