Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj today expressed concern over the rape of a 5-year-old in the capital and police atrocities on women protesters in Aligarh and demanded immediate action.


"I am terribly shocked to know about the details of the rape of a 5-year-old child in Delhi. She should be shifted to AIIMS immediately," she said on micro-blogging site Twitter. The girl was shifted to AIIMS in the evening.


She also criticised the police brutalities on women protesters in Aligarh. A DSP led his team of police personnel in beating up the women who were protesting against the rape and killing of a child. "I had thought that after Damini case, thinking will change. Unfortunately, the situation has worsened. I see an ACP slapping a young girl protesting against this. These policemen are incapable of protecting women. Instead they beat them up," Swaraj said.


The DSP has been transferred by the UP police and two constables have been suspended. "This ACP should be ashamed of his uniform," Swaraj said.
