Police allege that Kajal intended to leave her husband and marry her lover. However, she viewed her daughter as an obstacle.

The girl's father, Manoj Kumar, a fast food worker, and Kajal had been experiencing marital issues.

The woman, Kajal, allegedly inspired by a crime TV serial, is accused of slitting her daughter's throat. She then placed the body in a trolley bag, and abandoned it in a field near her rented home on August 23.

“The father of the deceased said the mother and daughter did not return home and that he was unable to contact his wife as her mobile phone was out of reach. Today, his neighbours informed the police about a luggage bag hidden in the bushes near his home. When we prised it open, we found the body,” Mithanpura police station's Station House Officer (SHO) Ram Iqbal told PTI.
