Rochin Chandra, a budding criminologist from Udaipur, has made it big at an early stage of career. He is the youngest of the fraternity from India to get a chance to be heard at an international symposium of the World Society of Victimology (WSV) slated in Perth from July 5 onward.
The society conducts the symposium once-in-three years to respond to the diverse and complex needs of crime victims. It brings together victimologists, the judiciary, policing, researchers, non-Government organisations and policy maker to an international engagement.
“My research paper ‘Men as victims of online crimes: An Examination’ has been selected for oral presentation in the early career research category. This is an extra ordinary feat while pursuing 1st year of master’s in criminology and criminal justice science” Rochin said.
His research paper has been selected in top 4 papers featuring Victimization through newer forms of crime. “This paper is acknowledged because typically we portray women as victims of online crimes, which indeed is a default idea or norm, whereas we never imagine or rather less likely to acknowledge the frequently invisible victimization of men by online crimes.”
At the masters level, Rochin presented over 7 research papers in crime and victimization with three papers featuring newer forms of online crimes (including this) at various international and national criminology and victimology conferences.
He has to his credit one research paper published in peer reviewed and edited book with International standard book number and was selected to intern through a rigorous selection process in Rajasthan police academy to take classes on causes of crime for upcoming Sub Inspectors’s.
Rochin has been lately working with US based organization “International Justice Mission” on a project featuring sumnagali scheme- to examine the legal position.
