Godda (PTI): Two persons were arrested for allegedly strangling to death a three-year-old girl and dumping her body into a well in Jharkhand’s Godda district, police said on Friday.

The incident took place at Makudi village within Muffasil police station limits on Thursday night, they said.

Villagers said they spotted a man identified as Prem Murmu (50) near the well at night and, suspecting foul play, informed the police.

"The kid's body was recovered from the well soon after, and Murmu was detained for questioning," said Anand Shah, the officer-in-charge of Muffasil police station.

During interrogation, Murmu told police that he and his friend Jarmen Soren (30) had killed the kid. Both were later arrested, Saha said.

"The accused were in an inebriated state at the time of the incident. They have not yet revealed the motive behind the killing. This has led to suspicion that the girl might have been raped," the OC said.

The duo have been sent to judicial custody after registering an FIR at the police station, police said.
