MEERUT: Two men were arrested on Tuesday while a third is at large and wanted for the alleged kidnap, gang-rape and murder of a 16-year-old girl on National Highway 91 in Bulandshahr on January 2. The arrests come days after police initially dismissed allegations of kidnap and gang-rape made by the victim's family.
Zulfikar Abbasi and Dilshad, both in their late twenties and residents of Sikandarabad in Bulandshahr, were arrested for the crime, while a third accused, Israil, is absconding. According to police officers, the two men confessed that on the day of the crime, they first watched a film and drank alcohol, after which they set out in a vehicle to kidnap a girl from the highway "for fun".
"They (the accused) happened to spot the girl, who was returning home from tuition. They dragged her into their car on NH 91, just near the girl's village of Chandpur. Then they gang-raped and strangled her to death. Later that night, they dumped the body in a canal in Bil Akbarpur village in Greater Noida and fled," said a police officer.
