OPPOSITION senator Jayanti Lutchmedial believes girls who are victims of statutory rape in Trinidad and Tobago need greater support systems. She said too often, law enforcement and even the general public do not treat these children as victims.
She was speaking in the Senate on Tuesday afternoon after Independent Senator Paul Richards put forward a motion to find solutions to the issue of violence against women and girls.
