Kochi: A 12-year-old girl, who went missing from Edayapuram at Keezhmadu in Aluva, was found in Angamaly here on Sunday. She was found in an area where migrant workers live.
According to her parents, natives of Bengal, she said she was going to the store around 5 pm. When she didn't return after an hour, they went out looking for her and searched the entire neighbourhood, but in vain. As per reports, three other migrant workers have gone missing from the same area.
A complaint was lodged at the Aluva East police station. Suspecting abduction, the police registered a case and launched an investigation. On examining CCTV footage of shops nearby, police saw the girl being followed by two men.
