Kerala HC Directs CWC to Hand Over Custody of Minor Boy Allegedly Sexually Assaulted by Sister - (28 Mar 2022)

CIVIL

Kerala High Court has directed a Child Welfare Committee (CWC) here to hand over custody of a minor boy, who was allegedly sexually harassed by his cousin sister, to his parents saying that he would need their emotional support to overcome the trauma. The Court's order came on the parent's plea challenging the committee's decision to deny custody of the child to them for the reason that it could affect the criminal prosecution of the case.
