15, TALKATORA ROAD , NEW DELHI 110 001 Email: [email protected] *PRESS RELEASE 11.06.2010* The All India Democratic Women’s Association, Goa State Unit calls upon the Government of Goa to provide a safe and crime free environment for women in the state. AIDWA condemns the inegalitarian and chauvinistic regime which provides political and state patronage and protection in a systematic manner to the perpetrators of crimes against women. The latest incident of a Minister in the Government absconding in a case where he is wanted for questioning in connection with the death of a young woman only exemplifies the impunity with which persons with political patronage and influence use the same. AIDWA asks the State Government including the police to take all measures necessary to ensure that in the cases of Scarlett, Mahanand, the German girl involving the son of another minister of the present government, John Fernandes or other cases of crimes against women and children including the present case in question, the guilty persons are caught and punished and that justice is both done as well as seen to be done. * All India Democratic Women’s Association* * *
