Latur:
A 17-year-old girl was rescued by the police 20 months after she was reported missing by her family in Maharashtra’s Latur district, an official said on Saturday.
Based on a complaint lodged by the girl’s family, the police had registered a case under section 363 (kidnapping) of the Indian Penal Code in 2022, the official said.
Using cyber cell inputs, the anti-human trafficking unit traced the girl to Dharashiv district, where she was living in a village with a man, he said, adding that the teen was rescued on Friday and brought to Latur.
