Under the law, similar to the one in UP, the child if found guilty could be ordered to pay compensation to his neighbour. It will happen without a formal criminal investigation that requires a police investigation, a prosecution and a trial before a proper court that follows procedures and offers safeguards under IPC.
We have hit a crisis. We don't have money to pay our journalists.
Without urgent support, our investigative reporting is at the risk of disappearing. If you believe in fearless, reader-funded journalism, now is the time to act.
