Govt, probe agencies need to work with 'clear intension' while dealing with crimes against women: Kejriwal

All government and probe agencies need to work with "clear intension" while dealing with crimes against women, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Thursday.

Terming the setting ablaze of a rape survivor from Unnao "very unfortunate", Kejriwal said this is an issue where there is a need for working together rising above politics.

"All governments and probe agencies will have to work with clear intention. If we do so, we can provide security to women," he told reporters here.

Talking about rape incidents in the country, he said, "Either such issues are suppressed due to political pressure or those who are involved in these cases are so powerful that attempts are made to protect them through political patronage. If it continues, such incidents will happen."
