LUCKNOW: The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has taken suo motu cognizance of media reports that a 14-year-old girl was detained at a police chowki and a police station in Noida for eight days. She was beaten, burnt with cigarettes and given electric shocks. Reportedly, the girl, a domestic help, was detained after her employer accused her of theft.
