The convicts succeed in shifting cases from Leh to higher courts with ulterior motives and get bail after some time," it further said.It further stated, "We feel that the liberal tradition of using drink and the menace of drug use in UT Ladakh, and also the laxity of law enforcement agencies have played their role in the spread of social vices and also in encouraging the perpetrators of such horrific crimes.""The people of Ladakh request your Excellency to kindly establish a special fast-track Court fordelivery of speedy justice in the present case and also in other such cases that are more than one year old," the memorandum reads.A woman was brutally raped and murdered last year at Leh but the case, in spite of beingvery clear, is still pending to the chagrin of the bereaved and aggrieved family members of thevictim, it further reads.After 48 hours of search, the police arrested the accused Syed Zulfikar Ali Shah alias 'Zulzul' of Thiksey on April 1.Superintendent of Police (SP) Leh-Ladakh, PD Nitya told the media, "The incident happened on March 29. The accused offered the girl a lift to school and instead took her to an isolated place and allegedly raped her"."The victim also suffered a head injury during the incident, and the accused left her thinking that she has died. He was arrested within 48 hours of the incident," she added.The police have registered the case under relevant sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act along with sections 363 (abduction) and 307 (attempt to murder) of the Indian Penal Code, police said.The victim's condition is stable now, the police said.Further investigation is underway.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
