Kerala government to pay ₹1.75 lakh to girl terrorised by pink police officer : High Court

The LDF government was on Wednesday directed by the Kerala High Court to cough up ₹1.75 lakh towards compensation and litigation cost for the "trauma" caused to a minor girl by a pink police officer, who "acted as judge, jury and executioner" while accusing the child and her father of theft. The court said the pink patrol unit was "ironically" expected to provide "solace and protection" to the child, but instead one of its officers ended up "terrorising" the girl.
