Goswami said the suspect was known to the family and the siblings, who are nine years and four years old.
“The suspect used to be the driver of a truck owned by the father of the boys. Due to some differences, he left the job. On Thursday, he came to their home with his new vehicle,” he added.
The accused then offered chocolates to the kids and took them for a ride in his vehicle but did not return, the officer said.
