Teena and Prahlad Sahay in Kota police custody on Saturday
KOTA: Police on Friday night arrested a woman and her paramour for allegedly killing the woman’s 4-year-old daughter. The murder was committed in December last year and the body was thrown in Sariska forest. The woman and her paramour were produced before a court on Saturday and they were handed over to police for six-day remand on Saturday.
While investing a missing case of a 25-year-old woman identified as Teena, wife of Sumit Ahir and four-year-old daughter Nandni, a police team on Friday found the woman in Udawala village in Manoharpur area of Jaipur rural. The woman was living with her paramour Prahlad Sahay (45).
On inquiring about the daughter, Teena said that she was with her maternal grandparents. However, when the little girl was not found there, Teena was strictly questioned. She confessed that she had murdered her daughter by strangulating her on December 9, 2020. Her body was then thrown in Sariska forest.
The daughter was critically injured after accidentally falling off the stairs while playing a day before the murder. The local doctor had referred her to Jaipur hospital, but Sahay was not ready to spend money on the girl’s treatment. The couple took back Nandni. At night they decided to do away with the girl.
A wrong call on Teena’s mobile led to regular chatting, sharing pictures and it finally culminated in an affair. She eventually left her husband’s house with her daughter and began living with Sahay, a labourer in Jaipur rural.
