Police: Wild animal might have taken away child

Published on: 

Instead of investigating the sensational abduction case of three-year-old boy Varun Meena from Bairagarh Chichli village under Kolar police station area, the police officials are out to believe that any wild animal might have taken away the body.

CSP Upendra Singh of the region told ‘The Pioneer’ that there is strong possibility of boy’s being taken away by wild animals as the area in surrounded by forest.

It was surprising that the area from where the boy was abducted is only eight kms away from the police station and instead of taking the incident seriously and police officials are out to believe that the boy has not been kidnapped.

Singh claimed that more than 100 policemen were pressed in job for searching the boy who had disappeared at 7 pm on Sunday, but nothing could be found till date.

Varun Meena went missing after he was spotted playing outside his house by his grandfather who returned from work at around 7 pm. During the search for the missing boy police informed possibility of boy’s been taken by wild animals as the area in surrounded by forest but nothing concrete was provided by the police.

Policemen from five police stations Kolar, TT Nagar, Habibganj, Chuna Bhatti and Ratibad are working to search for the missing boy.

Among the senior officials ASP and CSP have been monitoring the search for the boy. Local leaders were also found concerned and discussed the issue with the senior police officials who visited the area.

Police are also tracking a vehicle which the locals suspect kidnapped the boy.

The footages of CCTV cameras installed across all the area and nearby areas have been keenly examined in search of missing boy. DIG Irshad Wali said that 10 teams have been formed to trace the missing boy still vital clues to reach and rescue him are not found.

Notably, Varun had gone to buy chocolates after he was provided with Rs 10 from his grandfather when he returned from work. Later Varun failed to return even after an hour and which created panic among the family members who along with the locals started search and later informed Kolar police.
