Information and Broadcasting Services Minister Dora Siliya has expressed concern over increased cases of molestation and child abuse being reported in the country.

And Ms Siliya is further concerned over how political issues have polarized the media and law enforcement agencies ,overshadowing serious matters such as those that have to do with children such as defilement and molestation issues.

The minister has challenged journalists to make headlines out of real issues affecting the communities and not concentrating on politics.

She says the increased and continuous cases of children being defiled, molested and abused in schools and homes calls on all citizens to talk about so that perpetrators can be brought to book and for avoidance of such crimes to continue being committed.

She has emphasized on the need for the police, school authorities and parents to not turn a blind eye on such matters as they are happening everywhere.
