Natasha Chaku
Melbourne, Mar 7 (PTI) Australian police probing the
unnatural death of a three-year-old Indian boy here claimed a
breakthrough Sunday, saying they are searching for a car seen
near the place where the toddler's body was found three days
ago.
A green VR or VT Holden Commodore seen in the area where
Gurshan Singh Channa's body was found under mysterious
circumstances on Thursday has emerged as a key focus of the
probe.
According to local media, Homicide squad detectives now
want to talk to anyone who saw that car.
The development is the first solid lead that detectives
have announced since launching the investigation, it said.
Police are also operating an information caravan at
Oaklands Junction, where the toddler's body was found, six
hours after he disappeared from a Lalor rental property which
his parents shared with friends and family.
They are hoping someone comes forward with information.
Till now, no cause has yet been determined for the
death of Gurshan, whose body is still lying in a city morgue
awaiting cremation.
His grieving parents Harpreet Kaur Channa and Harjit
Singh Channa have cancelled their tickets to India, which they
had booked for Saturday.
The couple want their son's body to be cremated in their
home town in Punjab. (More) PTI
