The body of a teenage girl stabbed to death was found in a village in the Paru police station area of Muzaffarpur district. The family identified the body and accused a youth from the same village and his companions of kidnapping, raping and murdering the girl. The victim’s mother said that her daughter had refused to marry the accused. This is why the crime was committed.
The mother of the deceased girl has lodged a case of rape and murder after kidnapping against the accused youth and his five companions in the police station. The mother told the police that the accused is a resident of the same village. He had threatened three days ago that you should get your daughter married, otherwise he will kill her.
According to the victim’s mother, on the night of August 11, the accused came on three bikes with five companions. They abused and beat up the husband and son. When they protested, they broke the gate of the house and entered inside and showed the daughter a knife and a weapon and asked her to keep quiet. After that, they gagged the daughter and forcibly made her sit on the bike and took her away. When they raised an alarm, people gathered around. After that, a search was conducted, but the daughter was not found.
On the morning of 12th August, the body of the girl was found in a pond with her hands and legs tied. The mother has alleged that these people first gang-raped her daughter and then killed her. Paru Thanedaar Monu Kumar said that raids are being conducted to arrest the accused.
