While urging authority concerned to conduct speedy trial of cases related with crimes against women and deliver justice in time, Women Action for Development (WAD) has demanded stringent action against those involved in such crimes.
Addressing media persons at its Palace Compound office here on Tuesday, WAD member Kshetrimayum Sapana informed that the United Women Rights Defender, which is a conglomerate of six organisations, was formed and a meeting convened wherein crimes committed against women and girl child were discussed minutely.
A number of resolutions were adopted in the said meeting which included proper investigation of cases related with crimes against women, delivering justice in time, filling up of vacant post of judges at the earliest by the government, proper investigation of all suspicious deaths and installation of DNA machine in the state at the earliest.
These resolutions should be translated into action at the earliest by the government, she demanded.
While condemning the death of RK Divya of Thangmeiband in the strongest terms, Sap ana said that authority concerned should take the matter seriously and ensure that justice is delivered to the victim at the earliest and all involved in the case punished befittingly.
