Crusading against child sexual abuse through law, introspecting the POSCO

Crusading against child sexual abuse through law, introspecting the POSCO

Both men and women can be offenders under the POSCO Act. (Two offences, which involves penetration by the penis, can be perpetrated only by men, specifically under section mentioned below:



Section 3: A person is said to commit “penetrative sexual assault” if (a) “he penetrates his penis, to any extent, into the vagina, mouth, urethra, or anus of a child or makes the child to do so with him or any other person”; Since the words “any other person” are used in Section 3(a), women may also be offenders or victims under the second part of Section 3(a).
