NEW DELHI: Delhi Commission for
Women
(DCW) has issued summons to
Delhi Police in the case of alleged abuse and rape threats to
Muslim
women by a group of people. Police had replied to the commission stating that they had not received any complaints in the matter, while the commission said it had sent 250 such complaints to them.
DCW
has asked the investigating officer to appear before it on August 18 with a detailed report.
DCW, in its notice to police on Monday, said the commission received a reply from Delhi Police that UP Police had not provided any information to it in the case. “This reply is totally unsatisfactory as the commission had itself annexed copies of 250 such complaints received by it with its notice and asked specific point-wise information with respect to the case. Clearly, your office has failed to provide the information sought by the commission,” said DCW.
The commission issued summons to police to provide complete point-wise information on the matter.
On August 2, DCW had sent a notice regarding posting of indecent messages against women of the Muslim community on social media. The complainant had informed the commission that five people had been posting derogatory messages that incite people to commit crimes against Muslim women on social media. The notice from the panel said one person had posted names and contact details of some women on his
Instagram account where he had asked people to rape them. DCW had said UP Police had informed that the accused were from Delhi.
