An 18-year-old girl from Rajanna Sircilla district in India's Telangana state was abducted by a group of unidentified men in a shocking incident on Tuesday.
The CCTV footage of the kidnapping, which took place in Moodepalle Village of the Chandurthi mandal area, showed one of the criminals dragging the girl and pushing her into the rear seat of a car.
It also captured the moment her father tried to come to the rescue, but unfortunately, he was pushed aside by the kidnappers, who then fled the place with the girl.
The girl's family suspected a young man from the same village, identified as K John, is most probably responsible for her kidnapping. Furthermore locals revealed to police that a year ago, this very man had eloped with the girl who was a minor at that time.
The couple was nabbed by the police and the boy was arrested after the girl's family filed a complaint against him.
The girl's family recently arranged her marriage with another man.
