Stating that special teams had been formed to lookout for the girl and rescue her, Tirupati Urban SP Abhishek Mohanty also released a photo of the kidnapper.

Tirumala JEO KS Srinivasa Raju was quoted as saying:

TTD vigilance and the police have already sent their teams to Vellore in Tamil Nadu. It is suspected that the women took the girl to some place on the Vellore bus route as per the CCTV footage.

This is the second such case of abduction to be reported in the town, within two months.

On 14 June, CCTV footage showed a couple kidnap a nine-month-old infant from his parents.

The Tirumala police were able to trace the address of the kidnappers on 27 June, by using their Aadhaar cards.

The infant was finally rescued in Namakkal in Tamil Nadu on 29 June.
