Faridabad: In a horrifying incident, a four-year-old girl was raped, brutally murdered and her body was stuffed inside a container in Haryana's Faridabad. 

The incident took place on Thursday in Asaoti village in Faridabad's Palwal. 

According to reports, the accused was an employee at the victim's father's sweet shop. He dumped the body in a container and kept it at his residence. 

According to an NDTV report, the accused, 24-year-old Bhola alias Virender, left the sweet shop at 1:30 pm, saying he will drop the girl home, police said. But they both could not be traced till late evening.
