Mangaluru : Members of the all College Students Union  staged a demonstration in-front of the DC office on November 6, Thursday for a separate police wing to look into cases of sexual assault on students.

Addressing at protest meet, association’s President Dikshit V. Shetty said cases of sexual assaults continue to be reported and there was no effective action by police against the perpetrators. The death of the 14-year-old girl following rape in Thirthahalli was one among the several cases of rape where police have failed to catch the real accused.

Setting up a special police wing for investigation of such sensitive cases will provide confidence among students who have been victims of sexual assault.

End of the protest a memorandum was submitted at the office of the Deputy Commissioner A.B.Ibrahim. Earlier the activists raised slogans outside the office of the Deputy Commissioner against the police for taking time in catching persons behind the death of the school girl from Thirthahalli.
