Sources from Chennai have stated that lambasting the Tamilnadu government for its poor handling of child missing cases and its reluctance to allow the court to directly ask senior officers about fate of such cases, the Madras high court has said that if they lose faith in local police, then they have to think some other ways to deal with the issue.


It was submitted that the authorities had appointed a woman superintendent of police of CB-CID Rajeswari and Raja Srinivasan, deputy superintendent of police, CB-CID to handle the cases and after the judges hearing a habeas corpus petition filed to trace two children abducted from the pavements of Chennai said the court was not at the mercy of the government in such matters.


Meanwhile the judges wanted a senior officer, preferably in the additional director general of police cadre, to appear in court to explain the steps taken to trace the missing children.


It is further stated that Operation Smile-II was conducted between January 1, 2016 and January 30, 2016, and 140 missing children were traced, and 1,309 children were rescued from public places and sincere efforts were being made by the state police to trace missing children, and such cases were not blindly closed as undetected, the government side informed the court.
