In a very gruesome incident that has left the city reeling, a two-and-a-half-year-old girl has died a horrific death in Malavani, Mumbai, allegedly at the hands of her mother’s 19-year-old lover. The child’s 30-year-old mother is accused of silently witnessing the heinous crime, which included rape.
The incident came to light when the young victim was brought to a local hospital.
Suspicious Circumstances Unveiled
Initially, the accused mother informed doctors that the child was suffering from epilepsy and had died during treatment. However, medical professionals discovered disturbing injury marks on the girl’s private parts and immediately alerted the police. Doctors further stated that the minor girl succumbed to shock due to asphyxiation, and confirmed she had been raped. Based on these suspicious findings, the mother and her lover were arrested.
A Chilling Betrayal
According to reports, the accused woman’s husband had abandoned her during her pregnancy. She later gave birth to the girl and subsequently entered into a relationship with the 19-year-old boy. Information suggests the accused man raped the daughter in front of her mother. The victim reportedly screamed in pain, but her mother allegedly made no attempt to intervene or save her.
When the girl’s condition deteriorated, the duo transported her to the hospital, where doctors declared her dead. The community is grappling with the horrific details of the case, as many express disbelief at a mother’s alleged inaction in the face of such brutality.
