Minor child refuses to leave his kidnapper despite being reunited with parents

A two-year-old child, rescued by the police, created a bizarre scene by refusing to leave his kidnapper. Despite being reunited with his parents, the toddler continued to hug his abductor.

According to Indian media, the incident took place in Jaipur where the child, named Prithvi, was recovered by the police after 14 months of abduction.

At the police station, Prithvi clung to his kidnapper while his parents anxiously waited to meet their son.

The 33-year-old suspect, identified as Tanuj Chahar, is from Agra and was formerly a head constable in the Reserve Police Lines in Aligarh. He had evaded capture for over a year by frequently changing his appearance and location.

Chahar had been living with the child as a monk in a hut near the Yamuna River in Vrindavan.
