An incident must be reported as soon as practicable. Late reporting sometimes is fatal to a case. However what is late is dependend on the situation. I have read one case where even though a rape was reported after 2 months the case proceeded and the accused was held guilty.
We cannot derive negative inferences from the fact that this particular incident was reported after 24 hours. We don't know the circumstances and speculation on this ground is worthless. 24 hours is normally not fatal to a case. Lets drop this one point.

Even if we close it on accessindia the press will still carry it and Avinash and others will copy it for us. I however think that the reporting to the police has been a good step. I also think that my advice to Prashant that he must track the matter is sound advice.NAB Delhi is going to be harassed by many and we in the sector must atleast criticise only after knowing facts. Now the next set of problems who will you protect the kids from and to what extent? Avinash has listed out a few recent incidents.There are many more. Who do you trust- Trustees, management,staff, family members, volunteers, politicians,police, seniors from the same sex or from the opposite sex. Everyone can be suspect and we have to guard against everyone. These crimes donot get committed completely by one person. Therefore I had mentioned an insider accomplice. Management cannot be blamed unless it is directly involved. If management has taken precaution as much as a prudent man would have then we cannot blame management. In many cases the parties have hushed up matters -this is detrimental to everyone. But blaming anyone before investigation is over is wrong.

Why not to talk about the dilemma of the NGOs--services vs. management of funds. purely person outlook. R.K.

Maybe other NGOs will learn and our faith in the system will be revived. Incidents like this happen unfortunately. You can tighten your security etc but this can happen again. Much harassment will be doled out to the alleged accused but the same harassment will be doled out in greater measure to your organisation and its staff and members first. Unfortunately this is how the legal system works in India. Please keep a track of the matter because if you don't the matter will slip under the carpet. This will take some time to end. You will need to track the police. Many in this group have a connection direct or indirect with NAB Delhi and would like to keep a track of the newspaper reports etc. Yes no names must or should be revealed. We are with you please go the whole hog even if there is someone from inside who is going to be implicated as an accomplice. Kanchan From: Ai [mailto:ai-boun...@accessindia.inclusivehabitat.in] On Behalf Of Prashant Ranjan Verma via Ai Sent: 06 September 2017 09:54 To: 'Harish Kotian via Ai' Cc: Prashant Ranjan Verma Subject: [Ai] Restrict discussion on the NAB Delhi incident Dear Harish, The incident reported in the newspapers and by Radio Udaan is under the POCSO act where peple are forbidden to reveal anything which could lead to the identity of the victims. The way peple discuss things on the AI list, I am afraid it could invite legal action by the police. So, please do not allow this to go through. I am ofcourse available to answer fquestions on phone or personal email. Yesterday Radio Udaan has done a very disturbing show on this already and they got lot of complains already.
