Obscene SMS case: Mere disciplinary action will not suffice - Times of India

This incident highlights how deep and serious the problem of sexual harassment of women is. If the allegation is true, here is a senior police official harassing one of his subordinates. And, despite being a policewoman herself, she is scared of pursuing a complaint. If the charges are proved right, mere disciplinary action against the ACP will not suffice. The police must then lodge a case against him and prosecute him. If those charged with the responsibility of protecting ordinary citizens themselves indulge in such criminal behaviour, how do we expect ordinary women to have any confidence that their complaints will be treated seriously by the police and that they will get justice from this system?
