Tragic Discovery: Mutilated Boy Found in Etawah

The heart-wrenching discovery of a mutilated young boy's body near under-construction houses in Etawah's district has shocked the community. Police reports identified the victim as Ahil, an eight-year-old from Garhi Pura, setting off a series of urgent investigative actions.

Ahil had left his home Thursday morning to collect scrap, mirroring his father's occupation as a scrap dealer. By Friday, alarming scenes unraveled as residents observed stray dogs in distress, revealing the boy's lifeless form tragically sprawled in a pool of blood.

City Kotwal Yashwant Singh reported a severe neck wound possibly inflicted by a sharp weapon, suggesting heinous possibilities. Authorities are rigorously looking into whether this was an intentional murder or an animal-inflicted tragedy, with postmortem results expected to clarify the grim circumstances.
