Jaipur: Even as protests continue over the brutal gang-rape and murder of a doctor in Hyderabad, a six-year-old girl student was found allegedly raped and strangled to death with her own school belt on Sunday, police said.
Her body was recovered from bushes in a remote area near her village Khetadi. Liquor bottles, snacks and bloodstains were also found at the spot, police officials said.
According to police, there was a sports competition at the girl's school on Saturday and she went missing after it ended.
Her family started searching for her when she did not reach home by 3 p.m. but it was only her blood-stained body that was found near the village this morning.
Protesting the heinous crime, a huge crowd gathered at the spot, as police and forensic teams arrived on being informed about the body's discovery.
The body of the girl was taken elsewhere for a post-mortem as required facilities were unavailable in the village.
Superintendent of Police Adarsh Sidhu said that prime facie, it is a rape and murder case.
"We are investigating the case to trace the accused. We have formed special teams," he added.
