Delhi: Man arrested for sexually assaulting, killing six-year-old boy
A six-year-old boy of Delhi's Harsh Vihar was sexually abused and murdered by a 40-year-old laborer, Ram Niwas. The accused allegedly strangled the boy after sodomizing him. The boy's father filed a complaint after he went missing on 12 August. A sniffer dog helped police arrest Niwas who claims he sexually assaulted and killed eight boys since 2007.
The police were reportedly about to give up tracking Ram Niwas who allegedly sodomized and killed the six-year-old boy of Harsh Vihar as there were no apparent clues. However, a sniffer dog Viren helped the investigating teams, leading them to Niwas's workplace. The boy's father, a tea shop owner, said his son left the shop in the evening on 11 August and never returned.
"Following a search operation, the boy's body was found. Nothing else, however, could be ascertained about the case. It is then that the tracking dog Viren was called on the spot. The canine led the police team towards a nearby under-construction building," said DCP Singla.
The timeline is brewing!
