Child Sex Abuse Headlines from 2014 in India

Just a few headlines from India for child sexual abuses that resulted in arrests in 2014. All but one are from one state - Kerala, but you can bet that child sex abuse in India is not restricted to one state.

Police have arrested a Thiruvananthapuram native on the charges of sexually abusing a two-and-a-half-year-old girl after kidnapping her while she was sleeping with her parents on the veranda of a shop in Kannur in the early hours of Tuesday. According to police, the accused, who is working in the fish market in Ayikkara, abused the girl around 2 a m. The accused will be produced before the court in the evening.
