Missing Class 5 student found dead in pond near quarry in UP’s Jhansi, probe underway

An 11-year-old Class 5 student from Premnagar in Jhansi was found dead in a pond on Friday night, according to police. The boy had been missing since Thursday night, when his family reported him as gone after he went out to play following tea at home. Police received reports of the body around 11pm in Bhainsasur area, about 3 km from the boy's home, and the postmortem will help determine the cause of death. The family suspects foul play, as the boy's grandfather claims he would not have ventured so far from home alone.
