A four-year-old girl was allegedly kidnapped and sexually assaulted in West Bengal's Hooghly district on Friday night, NDTV reported.

The child, who belongs to the Banjara community, was sleeping beside her grandmother under a mosquito net on a cot near a railway shed in Tarakeshwar.

According to the grandmother, the perpetrator cut through the mosquito net and carried the child away around 4 am.

"She was sleeping with me,” NDTV quoted the grandmother as saying. “I didn't even realise when she was taken. I don't know who the people were who took her away. They cut the mosquito net and took her away. She was found naked.”

The family had been taking shelter near the railway station after their homes were demolished, according to the grandmother.

The child was later found bleeding, with bite marks on her cheek, lying without clothes in a pool of blood near a drain, The Indian Express reported.

She was first taken to a hospital in the area and later referred to the Chandannagar Hospital.

A case has been registered under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, the newspaper quoted an unidentified senior officer from the Hooghly rural police as saying.

The Opposition Bharatiya Janata Party in the state has accused the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress government of failing to maintain law and order and of initially suppressing the case.

Leader of the Opposition Suvendu Adhikari alleged that the police were “busy burying the crime”.

“This is the True Face of Mamata Banerjee's free-for-all regime,” he said on social media. “A child's life is shattered, yet the Police are shielding the State's Fake Law & Order Image, by suppressing the truth.”

He further asked Banerjee: “How many more lives of innocent daughters must be sacrificed/destroyed for your political survival?”
