West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has called for the Kultali rape-murder case to be prosecuted under the POCSO Act, demanding capital punishment for the culprits within three months. The case involves the tragic death of a 10-year-old girl, whose body was found in a canal in South 24 Parganas. Protests erupted as locals and BJP leaders demanded justice. Banerjee emphasized that crime has no caste or religion and condemned media trials in such cases, as they could interfere with investigations. Police have detained a suspect, and investigations are ongoing.
