A 17-year-old girl made up her own kidnapping story as she was scared of her parents’ anger after she could not pass her annual undergraduate examination. The teenager escaped from Indore to neighbouring Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh, the police said on Sunday.
The girl, who was in the first year of a Bachelor of Arts (BA) course at a college here, was handed over to her family on Saturday after being brought from Ujjain, located about 50 km from Indore, they said.
The girl’s father lodged a complaint on Friday night stating his daughter was abducted from near a temple in Indore while she was on way home from the college, hours after the exam results were announced,” Indore’s Banganga police station inspector Rajendra Soni told PTI.
The complainant stated his daughter called him from an unknown number and informed him she had been kidnapped in Indore.
