Mumbai, August 17: A 20-year-old man, identified as Aditya Kamble, allegedly stabbed a 12-year-old girl multiple times on Wednesday night, August 16, resulting in her death in Kalyan East. The shocking incident unfolded in the Durga Darshan Society of Tisgaon, where both the victim and the accused resided. According to multiple reports, initial investigations reveal that Aditya had reportedly proposed to the young girl twice before, only to face rejection on both occasions.
Enraged by this, he apparently harboured a deep resentment towards her. On the night of the incident, Aditya was seen loitering around the girl's residence for several hours before she returned home with her mother around 8 pm.
