Rina Devi, a domestic worker originally from Bihar and presently living in a rented accommodation in Onkar Nagar, has filed a complaint, alleging that her daughters were abducted by a man Kamaruddin known to the family.

According to the complaint, Rina Devi had been residing in Onkar Nagar for the past several months along with her three daughters – aged 10, aged 6 and aged 3. She claims that for the past six months, Kamaruddin, reportedly from Baba Gadhia, Phagwara, had been living in the same house and working as a painter.

The woman told the police that on July 4, she left for work, leaving the children at home. When she returned in the evening, she was shocked to find all three daughters missing. She now suspects that Kamaruddin has taken the children and may be keeping them at an undisclosed location.

The police have registered a case. Cops are treating the matter with urgency, given the involvement of minors.
