Bhopal: A stark violation of childhood innocence has shattered the festive air of Bhopal. During the vibrant Dhulendi celebrations in Nishatpura, a 9-year-old girl was tragically lured into a local residence by Sonu Kushwaha, where she endured a harrowing act of molestation. The young victim, initially silenced by fear, found her voice after a crucial school awareness program on “bad touch.” This vital education empowered her to confide in her mother, leading to an immediate police report. Authorities have swiftly launched a manhunt, invoking the stringent POCSO Act alongside charges of molestation.

In a separate, equally alarming incident, an 18-year-old girl faced public indecency near Galla Mandi. Shafiq, the perpetrator, committed obscene acts in broad daylight, violating her sense of safety. The victim displayed immense courage by reporting the assault to her family and subsequently filing a police complaint. These distressing cases highlight the persistent vulnerability of women and children, underscoring the urgent need for community vigilance and robust legal action to ensure their protection.
