When no one knows the whole truth, it is all the more important to speak out in a balanced manner without tarnishing any party's reputation.
Sadly, most celebrities have done just that and watching their icons talk a particular language. Their fans have crossed all lines of decency and are using obscene language against the poor seven-year-old victim; what is her fault.
Here I would like to thank noted TV actor Devoleena Bhattacharjee for having stuck her neck out in the interests of fairness (pls see her tweets)
Something did happen on that fateful day. No wonder the cops have taken action. What was that I would not risk saying, as that is not my brief
Here the alleged offence is grave, so a prompt and impartial investigation is the need of the hour. What makes the defence's job more tricky is that POSCO turns the old rule of innocent until proven guilty on its head. Now the accused needs to prove that said sexual assault did not happen.
Here, the learned court also needs to ensure that women protection laws dont end up ruining a poor man's life, as unfortunately has happened off late.
Further, since the alleged victim is below 12, a new law (not sure if promulgated) calls for the death penalty for a convicted rapist.
It is tragic to see a young girl's reputation in tatter with both parents slugging it out in family court. The authorities should silently probe into the mother's severe allegations against the father( she says he is doing all this to get custody of the child). On the flip side, the father, too, should be allowed to have his say. Whoever is lying should face stern prosecution.
The sad part is that many innuendos are flying around, which will eventually hurt the girl only when she grows up.

Also, it was pretty sad to see a recording of the mother's phone chat with a known tv producer leaked. It was a private conversation that should not have been made public. Now the whole world knows who the mother is, which might harm the investigation.
