Mumbai, Dec 10: The Thane Government Railway Police (GRP) on Monday successfully traced and rescued a two-year-old girl who had been reported abducted from Thane Railway Station the previous evening.
According to officials, a case under Section 137(2) (kidnapping) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) was registered based on a complaint filed by a 30-year-old woman from Nityanand Nagar, Ghatkopar.
On December 8, 2025, at around 8:30 pm, the complainant and her husband had gone to watch a movie in Thane after leaving their three minor children in the care of a family friend, Rajesh.
After the movie and dinner, the couple returned to Thane Railway Station around 3:00 am on December 9 to pick up their children from Rajesh, who was waiting near Platform No. 8, close to the Kalyan-end foot overbridge.
To their shock, they discovered that their two-year-old daughter had been taken away by a 14-year-old girl known to Rajesh and had not returned. A frantic search across the station yielded no results, leading the worried parents to file an abduction complaint.
