Newanki Langbah, 15, of Newhill (Loom Sooiung) was seriously injured when her stepfather allegedly tried to kill her by pouring hot water on her bodyon Sunday. In a press release, CSWO president, Agnes Kharshiing said there are many such crimes perpetrated on innocent girls and sadly the culprits are let off on bail in just a few days, leading to increase in violence against women and children, as the criminal feels they are protected even if he is a habitual offender.
