Bombay HC Criticizes SIT in Badlapur Case
News summary

The Bombay High Court has expressed dissatisfaction with the ongoing investigation into the sexual assault of two four-year-old girls in Badlapur, Maharashtra, stressing the need for a 'watertight' case. The court criticized the Special Investigation Team (SIT) for their stereotypical and inadequate maintenance of the case diary and emphasized that the chargesheet should not be filed hastily due to public pressure. The court suggested forming a state-level committee, including retired justices and a former IPS officer, to oversee children's safety. The SIT has conducted Test Identification Parades (TIP), reviewed forensic reports, and collected CCTV footage and Call Data Records (CDR). The accused, a school sweeper, has been remanded to police custody, but absconding accused linked to the school management remain at large. The court underscored the importance of educating boys on gender sensitivity, tweaking the government slogan to 'Beta Padhao, Beti Bachao.'
