Annexure 10 ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ ○ Much confusion prevails when it comes to using relevant sections of the laws related to trafficking. The work of anti-trafficking and rescue is marked by tokenism and adhocism, often depending on media reports about sex-rackets, pressure from NGOs, judicial activism and the individual interest shown by some committed officers. Recommendation: 1. Trafficking should be considered as an organized crime and tackled through an equally organized and systematic approach, for example, the Organized Crime Control Act. 2. There should be a nation-wide database on traffickers containing their profile, fingerprints, photographs, previous conviction record etc by central agencies likes the NCRB and the CBI. 3. Appropriate legal measures should be introduced in order to take action against customers, especially when the victim is an adult. 4. The IPC sections related to rape, kidnapping, abduction, wrongful confinement, etc. against customers, (by the police) should be implemented especially when the victim is a minor. Use of the JJ Act for rescue of minors and acting against offenders, including customers, whereby persons involved could be charged under statutory rape. 264 National Human Rights Commission Annual Report - 2004-2005 AR-Chapter-1-19-10-6-06.p65 284 7/17/06, 6:31 PM
Annexure 11(a) Para 10.7 Letter of the Chairperson of the Commission dated 3 rd August 2004, to the Prime Minister of India Regarding Prevention of Atrocities Against Scheduled Castes D.O.No.20/1/2004-PRP&P 3 August 2004 Dear Prime Minister, The National Human Rights Commission has been deeply concerned about the Human Rights violations faced by persons belonging to the Scheduled Castes in general and Dalits in particular. Despite the Constitutional safeguards and protective provisions in a number of legislations enacted by the Parliament, the persistence of these violations is a matter of grave concern to the Commission. The regularity with which such instances are being reported in the media underline the need for addressing them without any further delay. The Commission, therefore, requested Shri K.B.Saxena, a retired IAS officer, to go into the entire gamut of issues related to atrocities against the Scheduled Castes and submit a report. He has since submitted a comprehensive and detailed report, which has been considered by the Commission. In the report of Shri Saxena, there are a number of useful recommendations to prevent atrocities against the Scheduled Castes. I am separately writing to the Chief Ministers of all States and Union Territories and the concerned Union Ministers with a request to initiate appropriate action in this regard. I am enclosing a copy of Shri K.B.Saxena’s ‘Report on Prevention of Atrocities against Scheduled Castes’ for your kind perusal. In the interest of protection of human rights of one of the most vulnerable sections of the population, the Commission urges you to please institute an appropriate monitoring mechanism at the Centre to monitor the steps being taken to prevent atrocities against persons belonging to the Scheduled Castes. Dr. Manmohan Singh Prime Minister Government of India South Block New Delhi Yours sincerely, Sd/- (A.S.Anand) National Human Rights Commission Annual Report - 2004-2005 265 AR-Chapter-1-19-10-6-06.p65 285 7/17/06, 6:31 PM
