State-run home in Delhi turns into house of horror for teenage girls
The Government home is for providing a safe place for girls and women who are rape survivors, victims of human trafficking or who are from streets with nobody to look after.
But what was supposed to be a safe haven, turned into a house of horror.
According to reports, at least two girls have alleged to the police that they were molested by the officials.
Another girl has alleged that she was starved for days as she had complained against a staff member for torturing her.
The girls have also accused the officials of injecting medicines meant for causing premature growth.
An FIR was registered by the police after which the officials were charged with criminal intimidation, causing harm by poisoning, criminal conspiracy and laws under the juvenile justice care and protection act.
