Raising concerns that Maharashtra should not become like Uttar Pradesh - where news of witnesses being killed in high-profile cases have made headlines - Bombay High Court has ordered for witness protection to survivors and witnesses in cases of sexual assault and prostitution.
The division bench of Justice S S Shinde and Justice Manish Pitale directed the deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Mira-Bhayander Vasai-Virar Commissionerate to immediately provide the protection.
About the case
