An eight-year-old girl in Gurugram was allegedly abducted and raped on Wednesday by a 21-year-old delivery boy, who lured her while she was on her way to attend the 'kanjak' ritual.
She disappeared in the afternoon and was found nearly a day later, unconscious in a field about five to seven kilometers from home.
Her condition remains critical.
