Bareilly, May 9: A 15-year-old Hindu girl’s body, chopped into two parts, was found lying near the railway tracks in Bareilly’s Fatehganj Purvi village. She was hurled before a speeding train by a youth identified as Fariyad after she was forced to convert to Islam in a mosque. The family of the deceased minor suspected that the accused had sexually assaulted the victim before killing her.
Reportedly, the minor girl was en route to her school to take an improvement test after she got a call from her school saying that she got low marks in one of her exams. The girl was walking to school when Fariyad Hussain stopped her and offered to drop her to school on his bike. The accused, however, instead of taking her to the school, took the victim to the rail bridge near the Bahgul River.
Following this, the accused assaulted the victim and then pushed her before a speeding train. The victim died on the spot. The report also quoted the deceased parents as alleging that the accused first took the minor to a mosque where she was forced to convert to Islam. She was also sexually assaulted before being brutally killed.
The Bareilly police have taken to X to confirm the incident. They have said that an FIR has been filed under relevant sections of the IPC and an investigation has been initiated in the case.
