A <b>16‑year‑old</b> girl says she was repeatedly assaulted at the Crime Branch office in Ribandar, Goa, by <b>Inspector Vikas Deykar</b>, with a female aide also charged, under the <b>POCSO</b> Act. The case lays bare a sickening paradox: law‑enforcers turning predators while the system drags its feet, filing FIRs yet delaying hearings, leaving victims in limbo.
