Madhya Pradesh: Poverty forces woman to kill infant daughter

Khandwa, MP, June 14 (UNI) Far far away from the plentiful existences of India’s well-heeled segment, the scourge of impoverishment compelled a woman to murder her seven-month-old ailing daughter by throwing her against a wall of their dwelling in Ahmadpur Khaigaon village. 

The father abandoned the family after the birth of the girl. 

The couple had a female child earlier as well and she is six years old.

The homicide was perpetrated on Thursday after the infant wept for a long while. Later, the mother Maya sat for hours with the corpse in her lap.

Law enforcement authorities said that the kid was pronounced dead at an infirmary.
