He told them that a young woman had been coming to the garden every day for the past three or four days. She had even started talking to the children. She told them that she had a variety of animals at home, including puppies, pigeons, white mice, rabbits, and cats. She likely lured the two children with the promise of showing them the animals and playing with them.
Meanwhile, two other children, Lakshya and Shaurya, who were playing with the children, also told the police that a young man also used to come to the garden regularly along with the girl who had kidnapped them.
They showed the children videos on their mobile phones. They showed dogs, cats, and other animals. They told the children that if they came with them, they would give them these animals and even gift them cages.
