The family of a four-year-old boy who disappeared from near his residence in Dongri on Wednesday suspects he was kidnapped. The boy’s parents say a friend of the child saw a stranger with him before he went missing. The police said the missing boy, Mohammed Gulam-e-Gaut alias Masum, a resident of Nishanpada cross lane near Abdul Baba Shah Dargah, was left by his mother Asgari Khatun (35) at a tea stall near their home as he wanted to play with his friends after the two had returned from a trip to the market.
