Porvorim, 22nd February, 2018.
Goa Human Rights Commission
Proceeding No. 45/2015
Inquiry Report
Ms. Suzana De Souza, Center Co-ordinator, Child
Line, Caritas-Goa, Instituto Nasa Senhora de
Piedade, D.B. Marg, Nr. Hotel Mandovi, Panaji-Goa,
has approached this Commission alleging that
Master Christopher Lakra (Lakda), a tribal child
was stripped naked and was physically assaulted.
It is stated that the Childline reported all the facts
to Mapusa Police on 20-01-2015 but the Police have
not taken action against the persons who assaulted
the minor boy and stripped him naked and tied his
hands.
2. Brief facts as narrated by the Complainant in
her complaint are reproduced as below:-
• Master Christopher Lakra (Lakda) had gone to
the house of the owner Ms. Maria (Trinidade)
resident of Cuncheli, behind the playground,
near Karaswaddo on 12-01-2015 around
9.00 p.m. as he usually used to watch TV.
• On opening the house he called out “Aunty”
but since there was no reply he sat in front of
the TV and started listening to songs from his
mobile.
• The lights of the sitting room were on. The
child also mentioned that persons namely
Sonu, Raju and another man whom he could
not identify, entered the house and started
hitting him brutally and tied his hands with
a yellow nylon rope and dragged him out of
the living room and beat him again and
stripped him naked and brutally beat him and
kicked him.
• Later the owner’s brother came who asked to
untie him and gave him two slaps. Later on
the owner Maria came and slapped him and
asked to put on his clothes back on as her
daughter was there. The child Christopher
Lakra was asked to wear his own underwear
and the child did so.
• Later the Mapusa Police helpline 100 PCR was
called and without any inquiry the police
personnel slapped him and asked him “where
is the money?” The child was unaware of any
money that was missing. He reported that he
had only Rs. 50 in his pocket which his father
had given him, which was also taken away by
Raju.
• He was then taken to the Police Station and
Ms. Maria filed a complaint against the child
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 48
1ST MARCH, 2018
2216
which was not explained to the child or the
parents. Later he was taken to the District
Hospital Mapusa for medical examination and
lodged at Apna Ghar as a case of child in
conflict with law was registered against him
and he was produced before JJB.
• Ms. Maria demanded Rs. 5000/- to get the
child back from Apna Ghar and the said
amount was paid to her, yet the child was not
released. Then she demanded 10,000/- more
to release the child from Apna Ghar.
• Childline reported all the facts to Mapusa
Police on 20th January and still no action have
been taken against the persons who assaulted
the minor boy, stripped naked and lodged a
false complaint against the boy.
3. Taking cognizance of the complaint, this
Commission issued notices to 1) The Police
Inspector, Women Police Station, Panaji-Goa, 2) The
Police Inspector, Mapusa Police Station, Mapusa-
Goa and 3) The Superintendent of Police (North),
Porvorim-Goa. In pursuance to the notices, the
Respondents filed separate replies denying the
allegations made by the Complainant. It is the case
of the Respondents that on 13-01-2015 at 00.05 hrs.
a phone call was received from PCR Panaji
informing that theft had taken place in the house
near ground at Cuchelim, Mapusa. Immediately on
receipt of information, PSI H. Raut Desai and staff
left to verify the fact at 00.45 hrs. PSI H. Raut Desai
and staff returned to the Police Station and reported
that the place in question i.e. house of Maria
Trindade at Cuchelim was visited by Police where
one boy was caught by people gathered at the
place and it was alleged that said boy was involved
in house breaking and theft at the residence of
Maria Trindade. It is further the case of the
Respondents that the said boy was brought at the
Police Station and disclosed his name as
Christopher Lakad. The Respondents have also
stated that Mrs. Maria Trindade, r/o Khalapwado,
Cuchelim also came to the Mapusa Police Station
and lodged her complaint to the effect that on
12-01-2015 at around 21.00 hrs. boy by name
Christopher Lakad, s/o Albert Lakad, r/o
Khalapwado, Cuchelim-Mapusa entered into her
house by forcibly pushing open the entrance door
and decamped with cash of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees
ten thousand only) from the cupboard inside the
house. It is stated that an offence vide Mapusa P.S.
Cr. No. 17/2015 U/s 457 380 of IPC was registered.
4. It is further the case of the Respondents that
the said Christopher Lakad is juvenile. An
intimation was given to his father for taking him in
custody by the Police and after completing the
formalities, the said Christopher Lakad was referred
for medical examination and thereafter was
produced before the Juvenile Justice Board,
Merces-Goa for admission in Apna Ghar. The
Respondents stated that neither the juvenile nor
his family members have complained about assault
on him before the Medical Officer, or when
produced before the Principal Magistrate, Juvenile
Justice Board, Merces. Similarly, neither the
juvenile nor his family members had complained
about assault on the juvenile before the
Investigation Officer during the investigation or
before Juvenile Justice Board, Merces. The
Respondents have denied that the juvenile was
assaulted by the Police or by any person in
presence of the Police staff. The Respondents have
stated that the action taken by the Police in respect
of the complaint filed by Mrs. Maria Trindade
against Christopher Lakad (Juvenile) is in
accordance with the law. In short, according to the
Respondents, the Police have not violated the
human rights of the juvenile who was taken in
custody in a criminal case and who was later
referred to Apna Ghar, Merces after observing all
legal formalities.
5. We have heard the Complainant and also
heard learned Advocate K.L. Bhagat for the
Respondents. We have also perused the entire
records of this case.
6. The main grievance of the Complainant is that
the juvenile Master Christopher Lakra (Lakda) was
stripped naked and his hands were tied when he
had gone to the house of Ms. Maria (Trinidade) on
12-01-2015 around 9.00 p.m. It is her grievance that
although the matter was reported to the Police
Inspector, Mapusa Police Station and Police
Inspector, Women Police Station, Panaji, no action
was taken against the persons who were involved
in assaulting and torturing the juvenile Master
Christopher Lakra (Lakda). The records indicate
that the Police Inspector, Mapusa Police Station,
had marked application dated 20-01-2015 received
from Mrs. Suzana De Souza, Co-ordinator, Childline,
for inquiry and report to PSI Harish Raut Desai.
Accordingly, the said PSI Harish Raut Desai
conducted an inquiry and found that there was no
evidence to substantiate the allegations made by
the Complainant. The records further indicate that
the Complainant had also filed a complaint before
the Police Inspector, Women Police Station dated
25-02-2015 regarding the same incident. In respect
of this complaint, Police Inspector, Women Police
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 48
1ST MARCH, 2018
2217
Station, Smt. Sudiksha Naik had conducted an
inquiry and submitted an inquiry report wherein
she had mentioned that there is no evidence to
substantiate the allegations in the complaint of
Suzana De Souza. She has further stated that there
is no sufficient cause to proceed with the
complaint as the same is devoid of any merit.
Admittedly, the victim in this case is a juvenile.
The Women Police Station, Panaji-Goa, is
designated as the Special Juvenile Police Unit.
7. A bare reading of the complaint dated
20-01-2015 filed by the Complainant before the
Mapusa Police Station and the complaint dated
25-02-2015 filed by the Complainant before the
Police Inspector, Women Police Station, prima facie
discloses commission of offences of “wrongful
confinement” and “voluntarily causing hurt”
punishable u/s 342 and 323 of the Indian Penal
Code, respectively. The offence u/s 342 of I.P.C. is a
cognizable offence. It is apparent that the Mapusa
Police as well as the Women Police Station, Panaji-
Goa, did not carry out investigation in a fair and
proper manner. The investigation of this case by
the Police, in our considered opinion smacks
malafide. Neither Mapusa Police nor the Women
Police Station, Panaji, registered First Information
Report against the persons who were involved in
wrongfully confining and assaulting the juvenile
Master Christopher Lakra (Lakad). Admittedly, the
offences have taken place within the jurisdiction of
Mapusa Police Station.
8. In the facts and circumstances of this case, we
are of the view that the Mapusa Police ought to
have registered First Information Report against
the persons who were involved in committing the
offences against the juvenile Master Christopher
Lakra (Lakad). The conclusions drawn by the Police
are totally unwarranted and unjustified. The Police
have no powers to close the matter on the ground
that there is no sufficient evidence against the
accused involved in the matter, once it is found
that the complaint reveals cognizable offence/
offences. In this case as pointed out above, there is
prima facie evidence on record that the cognizable
offence/offences have taken place. Non-registration
of FIR is a clear infringement of the fundamental
right of the victim boy as guaranteed under Article
21 of the Constitution of India and also violates the
basic human rights of the victim.
9. In the case reported in (2014) 2 Supreme
Court Cases 1 (Lalita Kumari, Petitioner v/s
Government of Uttar Pradesh & Others) the
Hon’ble Supreme Court has held that registration
of FIR is mandatory u/s 154 of Cr.PC if the
information discloses commission of a cognizable
offence and no preliminary inquiry is permissible
in such a situation. This is general rule and must
be strictly complied with.
10. We are satisfied that the Police have
committed gross illegalities by not registering FIR
against the persons who were involved in the
offences against the juvenile Mater Christopher
Lakra (Lakda) and have failed to comply with
directives issued by the Hon’ble Supreme Court of
India. We express our displeasure about the manner
in which this case has been handled by the Police
in utter violation of basic human rights of
the victim. We therefore make the following
recommendations:-
1) The Police Inspector, Mapusa Police Station,
shall register First Information Report on the
basis of the complaint filed by the
Complainant Ms. Suzana De Souza dated
20-01-2015 and thereafter shall proceed to take
further steps in the matter in accordance with
law.
2) The Director General of Police, Panaji-Goa
shall initiate appropriate disciplinary action
against the defaulting Police Officials.
3) The State of Goa, through its Chief Secretary,
Secretariat, Porvorim-Goa, shall pay
compensation of Rs. 5,000/- (Rupees five
thousand only) to the victim boy/Master
Christopher Lakra (Lakad), within a period of
thirty days.

1. Whether the Applicant proves that he is
entitled to receive from the Opponent a sum
of Rs. 41,188/- (Rupees Forty one thousand
one hundred eighty eight only) medical

etc.
2. What Order.
5. My answers to the aforesaid issues are as
under:
(a) Issue No. 1: In the affirmative.
(b) Issue No. 2: As per final order.
REASONS
6. Issue No. 1: In order to prove issue No. 1, the
Applicant has examined himself and produced on
record certain documentary evidence in support of
his oral evidence.
The evidence on record indicates that the
Applicant was in the employment of the Opponent
for the period from 02-04-2012 to 18-06-2014 as
Sr. Excise Officer. He was drawing a salary of
Rs. 27,039/- per month. The evidence on record
indicates that he resigned from service of the
Opponent w.e.f. 18-06-2014. The said resignation of
the Applicant has been accepted by the
management. The evidence on record indicates that
by letter dated 16-06-2014 at Exb. 7, the Opponent
has clearly admitted that they are liable to pay
to the Applicant a sum of Rs. 41,1881/- being
Rupees 17,399/- towards medical reimbursement,

indicates that an amount of Rs. 10,000/- has been
paid to the Applicant by demand draft No. 107995
dated 21-08-2017 as a first installment in lieu of his
full and final settlement. Thus, an amount of
Rs. 31,188/- is still due and payable to the
Applicant. Hence, it is held that the Applicant
proved that an amount of Rs. 31,188/- is due and
payable to him from the Opponent. The issue
No. 1 is therefore answered in the affirmative.
In view of above and with regards to the facts
and circumstances of the case, I pass the following
