PATNA: Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Sunday said that he would write to the chief ministers and high court chief justices of all states to complete probe into cases of rape and those registered under the POCSO Act in 2 months.
Trial of such cases should also be completed within six months, the Union law and justice minister said.
"I am going to write letters to all the chief ministers urging them to complete the investigation within two months in rape and POCSO cases," Prasad told reporters.
Incidents of rape and crimes against women are unfortunate and highly condemnable, Prasad said.
"I will also write to the chief justices of all the high courts to dispose of expeditiously all cases relating to rape and POCSO pending in the Fast Track Courts," he said.
