ACP Pal said that initially, the accused claimed that the demise of the young girl was an accident. "Because Nisha is the stepmother and Akram had three children from his first wife, Nisha generally used to beat them. They beat the child around evening or night on January 10. On the morning of the 11th, when they realised her condition was serious, they took her to the hospital, but instead of receiving proper treatment, she was given amulets and wandered around. They kept her on the roof during this time. When they realised there was no improvement in her condition, they finally took her to the hospital, where she died. Initially, they claimed it was an accident, but during questioning, it was revealed that it wasn't," the ACP added.
