Kajal was unwell on Sunday and when Ramesh got to know, he came and took the three children with him on a motorcycle. He returned on Monday with Kajal carrying the body of Shreya. The villagers caught and thrashed Ramesh and handed him over to police after Kajal told them that he had strangled Shreya.
Kajal told police that Ramesh took them to several places on motorcycle, and then to an orchard to sleep at night. Ramesh strangulated Shreya using the scarf of Kajal who woke up on hearing her cries. Kajal also told police that Ramesh used to say that Shreya is not his daughter.
SHO Chiluatal, Neeraj Kumar, said, "The accused Ramesh has been arrested and booked under Sections 302 (murder) and 506 (Punishment for criminal intimidation) IPC and the body has been sent for post mortem."
