Not just raping minor, official also harassed 4 other women

The complainants were working at a mental health unit at Sewa Kutir complex at Kingsway Camp where Khakha was posted as superintendent.

An official report, accessed by this newspaper, said one of the victims stated that Khakha directed his subordinates to make false assessment reports of the juveniles. The document was written on violation of child rights.

“The Superintendent (Khakha) directed to hide sensitive information related to sexual and physical abuse (POCSO Act) by some juveniles and stopped us from reporting to the juvenile justice boards,” the document read.
