Cops in pink, a judge playing cricket and a toy tractor: how police worked through trauma, secured death penalty for Rajkot child’s rapist | Ahmedabad News

In an episode of the wildly popular comedy TV series Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Detective Jake Peralta, while asking the sister of a murder victim to identify her brother’s killer from a line-up, asks them to sing the song “I want it that way” by the Backstreet Boys, since she had only heard the killer’s voice. He then goes on to forget the grim purpose of the moment as he joins in to sing along to the hit song, before realisation kicks in. A similar tactic was used by an Executive Magistrate last month when a seven-year-old survivor of brutal sexual assault in Gujarat’s Rajkot was to identify her rapist at the Vulnerable Witness Deposition Centre (VWDC) at the Rajkot District and Sessions Court. The courtroom turned into a ‘playroom’ and the police personnel played the role of her guardians as the child rode a toy car on the premises while the magistrate, who had kept her robes aside in order to avoid intimidating the child, recorded her statement under Section 183 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha …
