9-yr-old girl raped, killed in Surat

It seems the city of diamonds is turning into a city of rapes and murders. Surat that had woken up to the horrifying incident of gang-rape of a minor girl in a moving car in June last year, became witness to a more heinous crime on Thursday. In this case, the minor girl was not only raped but was also killed.  

The Surat police on Thursday recovered the body of nine-year-old
Priya (name changed) from a rivulet near Bamroli. Police soon figured out that the little girl had been raped before being killed.  Priya was missing since Wednesday night, when she left her house to attend a wedding near her house in Jai Mahadevnagar in Bamroli. She studied in class 3 in a private school nearby.   Preliminary police investigation revealed that the girl was raped and then murdered by someone on Wednesday night.
