The Commissioner said the state government would ensure justice for the victim while noting that, “it has become pertinent for parents, guardians, as well as people in the neighbourhood to remain vigilant to happenings around them, especially ensuring that their children and wards are in the company of people of impeccable character who are from well known family background’’.
