AGRA: A week after a 16-year-old girl was allegedly “kidnapped” by 22-year-old Mohammad Altaf — who was later found “hanging” from a 3ft-high water tap in the washroom of the thana on November 9 – the Kasganj police on Monday produced her in court for recording her statement, claiming she was found “sitting alone” at the town’s railway station on Friday evening.
Police said they are yet to nab the “unknown” friend with whom Altaf had allegedly “sent the girl into hiding”.
This development came even as videos of her with Altaf, sitting and laughing together, surfaced on Monday, raising more uncomfortable questions for the Kasganj police, five of whom have been suspended and a few unnamed ones booked for murder.
SP Kasganj Botre Rohan Pramod said, “Altaf and the minor girl were in a relationship. Altaf had persuaded the girl to leave her home with his friend and planned to catch up with them later after arranging some money. Altaf’s friend Rinku took her to Mathura and Agra.
