The child had been sleeping with her mother at a train station on Jamshedpur, India, before a man snatched her. Footage showed a man kneel down and grab the child, who is then seen clinging onto the suspect dazed at what is happening. 

An accomplice can be seen sitting behind with his arms folded behind his back as the child’s mum sleep innocently next to the unfolding incident. 

After waking to find her daughter had been kidnapped, the mother alerted local police before accusing her partner of taking part in the girls disappearance. 

Local authorities found the child’s decapitated body nearby but her head has not yet been found. 

Police chief Noor Mustafa Ansar said: “We scanned CCTV footages and came to know that the man had taken away the girl child while her mother was asleep on platform number 2 at Tatanagar Station on July 25 night at around 11.40pm. 

“The mother lodged a missing complaint with us on July 26 morning.” 

Three men were arrested for the crime, with two alleged killers admitting to police they raped the child.
