According to police, on the afternoon of May 1, the accused lured the girl from a spot near a temple in the village and took her to a cowshed located nearby, saying he would give her “shev” (a popular snack) and show her a calf. However, here he allegedly raped the girl, gagged her with a cloth and then killed her with his hands. He then tried to destroy the evidence of his crime by allegedly dumping her body in the cowshed.
