Guwahati, Aug 26 (IBNS): Guwahati city police on Friday rescued a minor girl from the clutches of abductors.

She was abducted on Aug 25 from the capital city of Assam.

Seven-year- old girl Adishri Dutta was abducted from an apartment at Jayanagar area in the city on Aug 25.

Following the incident, the Guwahati city police had launched an operation and finally rescued the minor girl safely from a house at Bamunbori near Sarthebari in Lower Assam’s Barpeta district at around 2-45 am on Friday.

“We were informed about the incident from the parents of the minor girl and immediately launched an operation. From the CCTV footage we were confirmed that a woman leaded the abduction,” a top police official said.

Police also arrested six persons, including a woman, who were involved in the incident.

Meanwhile, Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal hailed Assam Police for freeing  Adishri Dutta from the clutches of her abductors.
          
As soon as the news of abduction came to light, Sonowal directed the police administration to start a manhunt to trace the daughter of the doctors’ couple out.

Taking cues from the CCTV footage, the police succeeded to rescue Adishri from her abductors and nabbed all the persons involved in the crime.

It is worth-mentioning that the police in assistance with the people at large and especially media could trace Adishri out from the abductors’ hideout.

The Assam CM who is currently in New Delhi lauded the role of Assam Police.
     
Expressing deep concern over the incident, Sonowal urged upon all to share all the information with the police regarding anybody employed as domestic helps.

He also said after the information provided by the maid servants are duly verified by the police, they should be employed as domestic helps.

To prevent recurrence of such incidents in future, Sonowal also sought cooperation from everybody.
