A three-year-old girl in Tamil Nadu was sexually assaulted and killed after going missing near her home. A 19-year-old migrant worker was arrested for luring the child with biscuits and abandoning her seriously injured in bushes. 

The case has intensified public and political outrage over rising sexual crimes against women and children, prompting condemnation from DMK leaders and calls for stronger law enforcement and government action on public safety despite recent initiatives like the Singappenn women's safety force.
