New Delhi | April 9, 2026: The family of a four-year-old girl who was abducted and murdered in the Nandgram area of Ghaziabad has approached the Supreme Court of India, raising concerns over the police investigation.

The incident took place on March 16, 2026, when the child was reportedly kidnapped while playing outside her home. The accused was arrested shortly after the incident. However, the family has expressed dissatisfaction with the handling of the case by the Uttar Pradesh Police, particularly the Nandgram police station, alleging that key aspects of the investigation have not been adequately addressed.

ACP Nandgram Ziauddin Ahmed informed that a 900-page chargesheet has been filed in the district court under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), including Section 103 (murder), Section 238(A) (destruction of evidence or providing false information), and Section 66. Additional provisions under the POCSO Act and SC/ST Act have also been included.

According to officials, the investigation has gathered substantial evidence, and the case is currently under judicial process. The incident has drawn significant public attention, with the family continuing to demand a thorough and fair inquiry.
