According to several Indian media, the man lured the girl to an abandoned house in Baghpat, in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, last weekend.

According to the girl’s parents, the man took off the girl’s clothes and tried to rape her, but was interrupted by several monkeys, causing him to flee.

When the terrified girl got home, she told her parents that the monkeys had “saved” her from the man, the Times of India defeated.

Her father told local media: “My daughter would have been dead now if the monkeys had not intervened.”

“My daughter was playing outside when the suspect took her,” the father added. “He also threatened my child that he would kill me.”

The man was captured on camera walking through a narrow street in Doula village, holding the little girl’s hand.

Police say the man, who appears young, is from another village, but they have not yet been able to identify him.

A police investigation has been launched into the alleged attempted rape, but a local police spokesperson said the man is still at large.
