The Delhi Police have detained two juveniles, who allegedly kidnapped and murdered a nine-year-old boy from Dwarka.
The duo kidnapped Lalit, a Class III student, from Sector-23, Dwarka.
The kid's father runs a hardware shop and has given out shops and cars on rent.
The child was last seen with a youngster, who was known to the family.
"He did not return home. So, I went in search for him. I suspected a boy. He said he was not with him. They did not demand ransom," said the child's father.
Earlier in the day, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal met the relatives of the victim.

"The Juvenile Law should be made strict. We wanted to bring it, but it is pending in the Rajya Sabha. I will talk to the law department to bring it at least in Delhi," Kejriwal told the media here.
"The way two persons kidnapped the nine-year old boy and murdered him is very sad. The juveniles have taken the law very lightly. We will examine as to what the Delhi Government can do regarding this. I will talk to the Police Commissioner to take strict action on it," he added.
