An eight-year-old boy who went missing in Faisalabad’s Thikriwala area was found dead inside an under-construction house washroom, prompting a major police investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death.
A tragic incident has sent shockwaves through Faisalabad after the body of an eight-year-old boy was recovered from an under-construction house in the Thikriwala area.
According to police, the child, identified as Shakeel, a resident of Chak No. 71 JB Surli, left his home on Wednesday afternoon to play but failed to return. Concerned family members launched a search and made public announcements in nearby areas, hoping to locate the missing child.
Despite extensive efforts, no information about the boy’s whereabouts emerged. Later, his body was discovered inside the washroom of a vacant under-construction building, triggering panic and grief among local residents.
Authorities said initial observations indicated signs of physical violence on the child’s body. Investigators are also examining allegations that the child may have been subjected to sexual assault before being killed. However, police emphasized that no final conclusion can be drawn until forensic examinations and post-mortem reports are completed.
Law enforcement teams collected evidence from the crime scene and have launched a multi-angle investigation to identify and arrest those responsible. Search operations and inquiries are ongoing.
