A 15-year-old girl who left for Delhi reportedly to meet her boyfriend after getting acquainted with him on a photo and video sharing social networking service was traced in Haridwar on Monday, a Mumbai police official said. 

The girl had gone missing on Friday, after which her family filed a kidnapping case, the Bhoiwada police station official said.

"Our probe found she was in touch with a minor boy from Delhi. The boy's family had filed a kidnapping case in Delhi as he too was missing. Using technical surveillance, we managed to trace her and the boy first to Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh, and then to Haridwar in Uttarakhand," he said.

"Our team is in Delhi, where the minors will be produced before the Child Welfare Committee. Further action will be taken as per their medical reports and directives of the CWC," the Bhoiwada police station official added.
