Court convicts neighbour for killing two-year-old girl in Ludhiana by burying her alive

Chandigarh: The Ludhiana Sessions Court convicted a 35-year-old woman named Neelam for the gruesome murder of her neighbour Harpreet Singh’s two-and-a-half-year-old daughter Dilroz Kaur. The quantum of punishment will be pronounced on Monday.

On November 28, 2021, convict Neelam kidnapped the girl from Shimlapuri area on a scooty and buried her alive by digging a sand pit in Salem Tabri area.

According to the police report, Neelam had deep enmity towards the family, due to which she committed this heinous crime. Neelam carefully planned and executed the murder, buried the innocent child alive and then returned home and behaved normally to avoid suspicion.
