Gaighata, Oct 25 (PTI) The body of a Class-11 girl was found in a mutilated condition outside a neighbour’s house in West Bengal’s North 24 Parganas district on Sunday, police said.

She had gone to watch a cultural programme near her house on Saturday night, but received a call around 11.30 pm and left the event, according to her family members.

SP J Mercy said a special investigation team (SIT) would be constituted to probe the matter from all angles.

The family members have also alleged that she had been raped and murdered.

A large police contingent was deployed in the area to prevent any untoward incident, as locals staged a protest, another officer said. PTI CORR SUS RBT

Nine Years, Made Possible by Readers

In 2017, Shekhar Gupta started ThePrint with a simple belief: Indian readers want journalism that asks why and what next, not just what. And that enough of them would be willing to pay for good journalism.

It’s been nine years of readers choosing to make this possible. If you’d like to be one of them:
