Medics said that the victim was severely bleeding when she was brought to the hospital.

Astana: A six-year-old girl, who was kidnapped and sexually abused by a paedophile in Kazakhstan, is fighting for life after being left in a brain-dead state in coma.

According to a report in the Mirror, medical experts believe that the victim might have suffered a brain stroke after she was left to die on the beach in scorching heat.

The victim went missing when she was out shopping with her grandmother in the city of Aktau in western Kazakhstan.

In her statement to the police, the victim's grandmother said that while she was busy shopping at a grocery store, her granddaughter was running in and out. After some time, she disappeared.

The victim's family spent hours searching for her everywhere. Later, the girl was found in a devastating state and was immediately rushed to the hospital. Doctors fear that her condition might get worse as she is said to be in stage 3 coma.

Medics also said that the victim was severely bleeding when she was brought to the hospital. Specialised doctors from India have been contacted for assisting in the case, said a staff at the hospital.

The victim's grandmother said, \"Currently we are waiting for the doctors from India. Soon we will know if they will come or not.\"

Police have arrested a 32-year-old in connection with the case.
