Nagpur: Two minor girls were abducted by two moped-borne youths in separate incidents.

In the first incident, a pervert man lured a 14-year old girl with a false pretext and took her away on his moped from MIDC area on Saturday evening. Since then the girl has not returned home nor her whereabouts known.

The accused has been identified as Manishsingh, resident of Indiramata Nagar. The accused around 6 pm on Saturday told the 14-year old girl of the same area that her grandfather has called her.

Midway, the accused Rajat Verma kidnapped her.

Jaripatka API B D Patil has booked the accused under Section 363 of the IPC and searching him for tracing the girl.
