Alvi for fighting scourge of child abuse

President Arif Alvi has stressed for fighting the scourge of child abuse at all levels. In a tweet on Tuesday regarding Ministry of Human Rights Campaign for Prevention of Child Sexual Abuse, he said parents must be guided to recognize and avoid situations that can allow abuse. He said the teachers and parents should also be made aware of how to educate children to recognize, resist and inform.
The child abuse is an international evil and a painful scourge and "we must fight it at all levels," Alvi wrote. Earlier in January, Senate's special body was informed that as many as 300 cases of child abuse and others were registered in Islamabad, during the last five years. "At least 300 cases of child abuse were registered, while 260 cases remained unregistered in last five years," the DIG operations said in his briefing.
