A class 12th girl was allegedly abducted at gunpoint by an armed youth and his associates in a broad daylight in Gadhmukteshhwar area here.
The girl's parents have filed a police complaint against a youth of the same area, alleging that she was going to her friend's place in Daryapur village on Friday when he along with his friends stalked her and forcefully took her away in a car at gunpoint.
Hearing the girl's scream, locals tried to rescue her, but the youth, identified as Raju Singh, allegedly threatened to shoot then and forced her into the car and fled.
"Based on a complaint filed by the girl's parents, police have registered a case against Raju and his friends. We have launched a manhunt to search the girl and all accused would be arrested soon," said a senior police officer.
Police said they suspect it to be a case of love affair that went wrong.
