Lucknow: Two police constables allegedly kidnap and lock up class VIII girl in rented house

Accident – Death – Obituary News : Lucknow: Two police constables have been accused of kidnapping a class VIII girl and taking her to their rented house in the Asarafnagar locality of Talkatora on Saturday. The girl’s father became suspicious when he discovered that his daughter was missing and immediately went to the constables’ house, where he found her captive. He raised an alarm, causing the accused to flee the scene. One of the constables, named Nakul, who is posted at Talkatora police station, was later arrested.

According to Additional Commissioner of Police, West Zone, Chiranjeev Nath Sinha, a case has been registered against constables Nakul and Hakim for kidnapping and luring the minor girl to run away from her home. The 13-year-old girl was acquainted with Nakul.

“The girl underwent a medical test, which confirmed that she was not violated. Further medical examinations are currently underway,” said Sinha.

In his complaint, the girl’s father stated that she left the house on Saturday morning but did not return. When he became worried, his wife informed him that the girl had last spoken to constable Nakul. Concerned for her safety, he went straight to Nakul’s house, where Nakul lived with fellow constable Hakim and another person named Ramu in the area.

“Hakim opened the gate but denied that my daughter was there. He stood at the gate to prevent me from entering. I pushed him aside and went into the room where I found Nakul standing at the gate of a storeroom. I asked him about my daughter, and he pushed me down. I found my daughter standing behind him in the storeroom, sobbing out of fear. I screamed for help, and a large number of residents rushed to her rescue. Hakim helped Nakul escape from the scene,” said the girl’s father.

This incident has raised concerns about the conduct of police constables and the safety of minors in the area. The police department has assured the public that strict action will be taken against the accused constables and that measures will be implemented to prevent such incidents in the future.

The attackers, who were heavily armed, attacked a police checkpoint and stole the constables’ weapons. The identity of the attackers is still unknown. Balochistan, which shares borders with Afghanistan and Iran, has been a target for terror groups such as Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan and the Islamic State group.

In another incident, a Kolkata Police constable lost his life in a tragic accident while on immersion duty at Nimtala ghat. The constable was hit by an earthmover that was being used to clear idol structures. The driver of the earthmover fled the scene but was later apprehended. The police are investigating the incident and seeking a detailed report to prevent similar accidents in the future.
