Like previous years, incidents of child torture, rape and murder were noticed despite lots of positive initiatives of government. In 2022, the number of child death by drowning had been higher. In addition, child death by road accident and murder had also been higher this year. Besides, sexual torture of boy children was alarming. NHRC believes that, this type of crime has increased because of degrading social values. Commission thinks that ensuring exemplary punishment for all the perpetrators of child torture is very much important. 34 | Annual Report 2022 : National Human Rights Commission
