Kidnappers kill 14-year-old in Nagpur

Police reported kidnappers lured a teenage boy toward their car during a Shobha Yatra celebration event local. He attended festivities marking Hanuman Jayanti on April second when suspects executed their planned abduction carefully there. The accused convinced him to approach their vehicle before quickly forcing him inside without raising suspicion nearby. They immediately drove the vehicle away from the crowded procession toward a secluded area outside the city limits. Officials stated the movement happened swiftly, preventing bystanders from noticing the crime unfolding during the religious gathering. Investigators later confirmed the incident formed part of a premeditated plan targeting the boy during public celebrations.

Police said kidnappers attempted to render the boy unconscious by administering a toxic substance believed to be rat poison. Despite consuming the substance, the victim remained conscious, which frustrated the abductors and disrupted their initial kidnapping strategy significantly. The suspects then escalated their actions and physically assaulted the boy in an effort to force unconsciousness quickly.
Authorities revealed the attackers resorted to strangulation when earlier attempts failed to subdue the victim effectively during captivity. This violent escalation directly endangered the child’s life and demonstrated the kidnappers’ desperation to control the situation completely. Officials emphasized that the sequence of actions ultimately led to fatal consequences during the unlawful confinement.
