Article 1:RAPED –GIRL,5, BRUTALLY ATTACKED, COPS BUNGLED SAY FAMILY, The Saturday Star,p.1,Saturday March 25: 2017
Five year old, Tasmiya Mohammed, was abducted and raped a day after her fifth birthday from her grandmother's home in Lenasia. The suspect, who drove a white vehicle, returned Tasmiya home, two hours after abducting her. The family of the victim is outraged by the incompetence shown by the police. The police did not inform the family of the procedure that needed to be taken such as filling in a J88 form to open a docket against the perpetrator and letting the suspect go due to “lack of evidence”. The suspect was let go twice as the police station did not have DNA testing kits however it was said that the main did a DNA test on the next day. The police told the family that they had to wait 100 days to get the results and they couldn’t do anything. The police have proven to be
incompetent as no investigation of the vehicle took place and no evidence was searched for or collected. No arrests have been made. I find this article interesting because it’s hard to believe that this could actually happen in our society and it is a clear example of police not doing their job sufficiently. The criminal justice system is involved here as the police form a part of the criminal justice system, it is their job to investigate crimes and find the offenders to prosecute.
The key role players are the:- Witnesses: kids playing with Tasmiya before the abduction. The community who identified the vehicle of the suspect and reported it
-The police are involved are the crime was reported to them and they are in charge of investigating the crime-
the family of the victim who reported the crime-the victim that can identify the man if he is found and can give DNA samples
