On April 11, the child’s body was found under a car parked on the side of the road. Police said the initial inquiry revealed her maternal uncle had taken her to his residence on the pretext of playing with her. Instead, he allegedly raped and subsequently murdered her, police said, adding that he later disposed of the body in an attempt to conceal the crime. He then fled.
