Just over a month after a five-year-old migrant girl was abducted before being brutally raped and murdered in Aluva, another minor migrant girl, an eight-year-old, was abducted from her house where she was sleeping with her parents and sexually assaulted at Edayappuram in Keezhmadu panchayat near Aluva early on Thursday.
The accused who was identified by the victim and eyewitness was suspected to be a local and was on the run. The victim, probably saved by the alertness of the local residents, remains admitted at the Government Medical College, Kalamassery.
A search party of local residents had found the girl and restored her with her family, who surprisingly was not even aware that she had been missing for a while. In fact, going by the account of her rescuers, they had to knock the door and window of the house multiple times before the family woke up and came to know about the ordeal of their daughter.
