Shocking but true child molestation cases are growing at a faster than any other crime all over the world. What could be the reason for the sudden hike in such cases in comparison to past? Earlier it was confined to west but now it has made it entry to India even, which is evident from the cases being reported about it in newspapers daily.
Their is no discrimination of gender in this crime, boy or girl anyone could become victim to this crime. Earlier it was like such crimes were confined to the domestic help of the house holds, but now it has come to open fields,parks etc.How could someone even think of committing such crime to innocent children? More over in this crime victims age bar is also not specific, lesser the age of the child, higher is the chances of being prone to such crime.
Their are few NGO's who are trying their best to counsel the victims of such cases but then also, they find it difficult to bring such children back to normal track of life once again.Its difficult to erase memories of the incident from children's mind. But one thing I can say that most of the children in India are also victim to it, as only few go reported, rest don't report it due to fear. Mostly the offender are not strangers but are near and dear ones of the victims, which increases the intensity of crime.
When I thought about the possible punishment to be awarded to the guilty person I couldn't reach up to a conclusion, because it injures the present as well as the future life of the children. Mostly such children try to refrain from marriage in future life due to their past experience. They lose their innocence at very tender age.
I feel the punishment awarded to the guilty, should be some thing which is followed in Muslim country so that people think thrice before committing it.
