"Now the case has been transferred to Crime Branch we are hoping for a free and fair investigation. The Delhi Police must provide security to parents and protect the witnesses first, this is our demand and will also approach appropriate forum for this," lawyers added.

The case of the minor girl who was allegedly raped, murdered and cremated without her parents' consent in Delhi's Old Nangal crematorium has been transferred to the crime branch for speedy investigation.

Police Commissioner of Delhi, Rakesh Asthana gave the direction for the transfer of the case.

Delhi Police registered a case against four accused on the basis of the statement of the minor's mother who alleged that her daughter was raped, murdered and cremated without their consent on Sunday.

The accused persons have been booked under Sections 302, 376 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code, along with the relevant sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and the SC/ST Act.
