Police on Monday claimed to have traced the prime suspect of the kidnapping, rape and brutal murder of a six-year-old girl then throwing the body in a garbage dump in the Muslimabad area of Quaidabad.
The gory murder had created uproar in the area and police were under immense pressure to find the suspects at the earliest, SSP District Malir Irfan Bahadur said talking to the media.
During the course of investigations, police obtained DNA samples of around 100 people after the incident, Bahadur said, adding the suspect Riyaz alias Kaka Munna, had gone into hiding due to which police could not get his DNA sample.

SSP Bahadur said police are searching for the main accused, who is still at large.
