Missing child Jhanvi back home

The missing three-year-old girl Jahnvi Ahuja, who disappeared from India Gate last week was found in West Delhi’s Janakpuri on Sunday.

The police traced Jhanvi after a passerby saw her at the D Block market in Janakpuri and informed them. Her head had been shaved in an attempt to hide her identity.

“The caller reportedly said the girl had a placard around her neck with her name, her father’s number and the fact that she had gone missing from India Gate written on it by hand.”

She was taken to the Mayapuri police station where her family identified her. Jhanvi went home with her mother soon after.

The police suspect she was kidnapped by an organised syndicate of child traffickers, but revealed little.
