A gruesome crime has been reported from Uttar Pradesh’s Azamgarh district, a seven-year-old Muslim boy was allegedly murdered by his neighbour, his body stuffed in a sack hanging from a tree next to his house, on Thursday, September 25.

Shazeb Ali, son of Mukarram Ali, had been missing since the previous day, and a missing person complaint was registered.

The accused has been identified as Sandeep Nigam alias Mantu.
