A video showing a 38-year-old mother severely beating her 6-year-old daughter at Kopai in Jaffna had been uploaded to a social media website by one of their neighbors.

The Kopai Police arrested the mother and produced her before Acting Jaffna Magistrate

He directed the police to have the child examined by the Judicial Medical Officer and obtain a medical report on her health condition.

The child is being kept under police protection. (Romesh Madushanka)

This county has a long way to develop towards human rights. But people who murdered still walk freely. When they will be punished.
