Accused slits 2.5-year-old girl’s throat with a cutter
 
 
In a macabre incident, a man, angry over another man for breaking his marriage, killed the man’s 2.5-year-old daughter by slitting her throat with a cutter. The incident took place at Khemkund in Ralegaon taluka on Wednesday evening. As per information given by Wadki Police, Santosh Narayan Murkhe had a dispute with Balu Motiram Maregama over some issue.
 
Maregama’s wife had left him because of the dispute. Agitated over this, a fuming Maregama reached Murkhe’s house on Wednesday evening and he was allegedly carrying a sharp cutter. But both Murkhe and his wife had gone out for farm work and only their 2.5-year-old daughter, Devaki was present at home, playing alone in the courtyard. Raging with anger, Maregama allegedly slit the little girl’s throat with the cutter and ran away from the spot. When parents came to know about this they immediately rushed Devaki to government hospital in Pandharkawada but unfortunately she died while undergoing treatment. Wadki Police have arrested Balu Maregama under relevant sections of law.
