Supreme Court Seeks Response on Uniform Probe Mechanism for Child Kidnapping Cases
The Supreme Court has issued notices to the Centre, state governments, and relevant authorities on a public interest litigation seeking a uniform nationwide mechanism for investigating child kidnapping and abduction cases. The petition calls for time-bound probes, specialized investigation procedures, and dedicated courts for speedy trials. It highlights concerns over increasing child trafficking for exploitation, including forced labor and abduction for forced conversion. The Court is monitoring compliance with FIR registration in missing persons cases and is considering the plea alongside existing cases.
