A child was kidnapped from a railway station in Ludhiana on Wednesday. A woman was sleeping with her child near the booking window and when she woke up in the morning, her son was missing. When she raised the alarm, people gathered at the spot and informed the GRP.
Lalti Devi, a resident of Uttar Pradesh, said she arrived at the Ludhiana railway station by train with her two children, Raj Singh and Sanskar Singh. It was late at night, so she laid out her bed near the booking window and slept in the open sky. A man and a woman were also sleeping nearby. When she woke up around 6 am, her two-year-old son, Raj, was missing. She suspects that a man and woman lying nearby had abducted her child. The GRP registered a case and begun probe.
