Subsequently, an FIR was lodged on May 31 against the NGO Sewa Sankalp Ewam Vikas Samiti, which was running the children home, and its office-bearers.Ten persons, including NGO owner Brajesh Thakur and its seven women office-bearers, child welfare committee member Vikash Kumar and child protection officer Ravi Kumar Raushan have been arrested in the case so far."Nothing has been found so far at the shelter home premises where digging is underway. We are conducting a thorough investigation, police is working independently," SSP Harpreet Kaur said.The medical examination reports have suggested rape of 16 girls. 44 children were housed at Muzaffarpur children home. 14 of them have been shifted to Madhubani and rest 30 to two different homes in Patna after the FIR was lodged.The SSP has said charge-sheet will be filed against the ten accused within a week and police have also moved court for proclamation notice against another child welfare committee member Dilip Kumar Verma, whi is evading arrest. Madhepura MP Rajesh Ranjan alias Pappu Yadav of Jan Adhikar Party (Loktantrik) on Sunday demanded CBI inquiry into the case. Yadav said it is clear from the medical reports of the victims that they were raped inside the children home. “People must know about the politicians and bureaucrats involved in the case,” he said. Yadav also said he would bring adjournment motion in Parliament demanding a CBI inquiry into the case.Leader of opposition in Bihar assembly Tejashwi Prasad Yadav on Sunday accused the government officials of covering up the case. “It is rarest of rare cases. One girl was even murdered and buried on the premises. The government had been aware about rape since March, but no action was taken. Instead, attempts are being made to cover up the matter,” he tweeted. Tejashwi also alleged that minor girls were supplied to politicians and officials for years. He said such crime was also reported from Motihari, Siwan and Hajipur.
