NGO forms cell to protect 'innocent men'
PANAJI: Goa Citizens Welfare trust has formed Dadleancho Ekvott, a cell
to protect "innocent men" from harassment from false complaints against
them.
Chairman Michael Ferns said in a statement that the trust is all for the protection of women
and children but many a times, men are victimized based on false and
concocted complaints. "Some anti-social elements are misusing the
protection given to women by filing false complaints of abuse torture
and harassment of innocent people".
"As I have first hand
experience of such harassment, we are setting up a cell to protect men
from false cases," Ferns said adding that "we will help any innocent man
whose name has been tarnished with false charges".
He also demanded that the police investigate into complaints in detail before arresting
"innocent" individuals and tarnishing the reputation of men who are not
involved in such cases. Such men need to fight for justice, he added.
