Delhi News Live Updates, August 21: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has given orders to suspend the Women and Child Department officer accused of raping a girl under his care. Kejriwal has asked the Chief Secretary to submit a report in the matter by 5 pm on Monday. On Sunday, the Delhi Police booked the accused and his wife on charges of rape and under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act after the girl said she was raped by the officer several times between 2020 and 2021, and that his wife terminated her pregnancy by giving her abortion pills.

Meanwhile, several Delhi Police personnel have been deployed to provide assistance in the anti-encroachment drive in Shahdara’s Geeta Colony and avoiding any law and order issue, an official said. Paramilitary forces are also assisting in the drive, according to officers.

In other news, a group of 17 men were extradited from Libya after a harrowing period of six months, which culminated in a rescue operation involving an Indian MP and the United Nations. The men arrived at the Delhi Airport Sunday night. The men are among many who left India between February and April this year with hopes of landing jobs in Italy. Little did they know that they had been duped and were being sent on a “donkey route” — a term used to refer to the illegal and highly dangerous method hundreds of people undertake to reach Western countries.TIE
