Bahraich (UP): A teenaged girl was allegedly abducted, gangraped, murdered and her body hanged from a tree in Nanpara area here.
The incident has triggered outrage, prompting the authorities to swing into action. Four constables have been suspended for dereliction of duty and two of the three accused named by the victim’s father have been arrested so far, police said.
The incident took place on Friday when the 15-year-old girl went missing and her body was on Saturday found hanging from a tree outside the village, they said. Police suspect the body was hanged from a tree so as to give an impression that she committed suicide.
An FIR has been registered on a complaint of the victim’s father against Imran, Sarvjeet Yadav and Ghanshyam Maurya for abducting, raping and killing his daughter.
He alleged that the three had tried to abduct the victim earlier also but failed. (PTI)
