- Summary
- The preparation of this document was an initiative under the GOI-UNICEF Master
Plan of Operations. It is hoped that this Manual will serve as a valuable guide for medical
officers in discharging their statutory responsibility of conducting the age determination test
and providing the medical report. Both these constitute vital evidence not merely for prosecuting
the traffickers and bringing them to justice, but also for protecting the rights of the victims. - Related documents
