Bengaluru: The body of a seven-year-old boy with special needs, who went missing from his residence in Gempark Layout, Sarjapur, was discovered in a nearby lake on Friday morning. The tragic incident unfolded after the child, identified as Elvin D’Souza, disappeared while playing outside his home on Thursday afternoon.

Elvin was riding his bicycle around 2:30 PM, under the watch of his mother. However, she briefly stepped inside to attend to a washing machine technician. Upon returning around 3:00 PM, she found her son missing. The family immediately began searching the area, and his father later filed a missing person report at the Sarjapur police station.

CCTV footage from the area showed Elvin near a water tank close to Pushpam Lush County Recreational Area at 2:44 PM, but there were no further sightings. In a bid to locate him, his photos were widely shared on social media, urging the public to assist in the search.

Tragically, his body was discovered in a nearby lake around 11:30 AM on Friday. The Sarjapura police have registered a case of unnatural death and are investigating whether foul play was involved.
