Udupi, Jul 12: A 15-month-old girl child, who was reportedly kidnapped by a masked man from her house in Kumtiberu near Yedamoge in Kundapur taluk of Udupi yesterday, was found today. 

The police sources said that the dead body of the toddler was found nearby by her house on Friday afternoon.

The toddler’s father Santosh Naik, who works as a security guard at a private pump house, was not at house when the toddler was kidnapped.

According to the child’s mother Rekha Naik, she was sleeping with her daughter beside her when a masked man opened the door and snatched her baby and fled crossing a river flowing near her house.

Though she tried to stop him by jumping into the water she could not, she told police in her statement. The couple has a five-year-old son.

A case was registered at Shankarnarayan station. The SP also had visited the spot and a team was formed to probe the case.

After the recovery of the dead body, the cops have converted the kidnap case into the murder case. They are investigating if the abductor murdered the girl child or she died of any other cause.
