    OFFENCE AGAINST WOMEN AND CHILDREN

    INTRODUCTION
    In the ancient Indian women held a high place of respect in the
    society as mentioned in Rigveda and other scriptures. Volumes
    can be written about the status of our women and their heroic
    deeds from the vedic period to the modern times. But later on,
    because of social, political and economic changes, women lost
    their status and were relegated to the background. Many evil
    customs and traditions stepped in which enslaved the women
    and tied them to the boundaries of the house . The official
    statistics showed a declining sex-ratio, health status, literacy
    rate, work participation rate and political participation among
    women. While on the other hand the spread of social evils like
    dowry deaths, child marriage, domestic violence, rape, sexual
    harassment, exploitation of women workers are rampant in
    different parts of India. Humiliation, rape, kidnapping,
    molestation, dowry death, torture, wife-beating etc. have
    grown up over the years.
    According to Hess & Orthmann (2010), law enforcement
    agencies are charged with investigating all crimes, but the
    responsibility is greater when children are involved. Because
    children are more vulnerable than other members of society,
    their protection under the law must be greater. Crimes against
    children cover an extensive range of crimes, including but not
    limited to: maltreatment, sexual exploitation, sexual abuse,
    abduction, trafficking and molestation. Child abuse
    investigations involve many challenges and therefore warrant
    specific techniques and considerations for successful outcomes
    in terms of cases solved and prosecutions. This paper will begin
    by defining specific terms that are germane to the topic of
    crimes against children. The next section will provide a scope of
    the problem concerning crimes against children. The following
    section will offer a theory framework to account for offenders
    of crimes against children. The fifth section will offer a
    literature review of current research findings regarding crimes
    against children investigative techniques. This is followed by a
    discussion section that will identify strategies and
    recommendations for successful investigative outcomes.
    Finally, the last section will summarize and conclude the
    important aspects of crimes against children investigation
    strategies as they relate to successful outcomes and
    prosecution. The significance of this paper is that it contributes
    to the criminal justice system by critically reviewing
    investigative strategies and techniques as they relate to their
    mission of successful outcomes in crimes against children
    cases. This paper is written for colleagues and clerisy who have
    a professional or academic interest in reducing crimes against
    children through utilizing the best investigative strategies and
    techniques.
