A six-year-old girl was sexually assaulted and murdered, and her body was placed inside a locked car in Chhattisgarh’s Durg city, police said on Monday.<\/p>\n
Three suspects have been detained for questioning in connection with the incident in the Mohan Nagar police station area on Sunday, they said.<\/p>\n
The girl had gone to her relative’s house for a function on the ninth day of the ‘Navratri’ festival in the morning, and when she did not return home till evening, her family members launched a search, an official said.<\/p>\n
He said a missing person’s complaint was lodged subsequently, and the police found her body inside a locked car in the neighbourhood at night.<\/p>\n
The official said the girl’s body bore injury marks, and the medical report confirmed sexual assault.<\/p>\n
He said a case was registered, and three suspects, including the car owner and a relative of the girl, have been detained for questioning.<\/p>\n
Angered by the incident, locals vandalised the car and set fire to it on Sunday night. However, the police brought the situation under control and doused the flames.<\/p>\n
On Monday, the girl’s relatives protested outside the police station with her body. Protestors also intercepted the police when the suspects were being taken to a hospital for medical examination.<\/p>\n
