The body of a six-year-old girl who went missing on Thursday evening from her home in western Uttar Pradesh's Hapur town was found stuffed inside a trunk in a neighbour's house this morning.
Hapur Police SP Sarvesh Kumar Mishra told reporters the body had been sent for a post-mortem. Asked if this was also a rape case, he said this could only be confirmed based on the autopsy results.
"Yesterday we received reports of a missing girl. Today we were informed that some unpleasant smells were coming from a neighbour's home. A team was sent but found that the front door was locked. We broke the lock and entered the building with a field unit," Mr Mishra said.
"On entering and searching the building, we found the girl's body inside a trunk. The body was recovered and has been sent for post-mortem. We are investigating all angles," he added.
