Rajasthan: HIV+ Child is missing under dubious circumtances, Request urgent action

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

Premchand 11 year old HIV+ child from Jhunjhunu dist (Mukundghad bus stand ,

ward 18 ,) who was admitted at care home situated at Devi Nagar , Plot no 846 ,

near shyam Nagar Post office , Jaipur is missing from 17.02.08 under dubious

circumstances .

The child' mother told us that, " To bring back the missing case is not our duty,

if you agree we can pay some money instead of your child , otherwise we have so

many other important things to do " was the resoponse of Ms. Sushila Marotya, the

person in charge of this care home.

The mother & child were directed and informed about this care home by the VCTC

staff. The child was admitted at care home since October 2007 for care as

assured by the care home authorities.

We understood that the mother is a widow and underprivileged having two children

and her husband died out of AIDS.

The missing case was recognized by RNP+ staff on 25th at SMS hospital premises

after seeing the pathetic cry of mother.

RNP+( Rajasthan Network For People Living With HIV/AIDS ) is questioning the

current activities and undertaking of this care home which is run the name of

HIV/AIDS patient in Rajasthan.

Earlier also we had pointed out such kind of illegal, purposeful, and undefined

activities happening in Jaipur. The activities of this care home and existing

arrangements are also need to be checked & ensured

The following is a copy of the FIR filed by RNP+ We seek immediate attention

from all to save the life of the child and bring out the realities of this care

home.

FIR. To,

The S.H.O (Station Head Officer)
