INDIA: LUDHIANA WOMAN GETS DEATH PENALTY FOR BURYING TODDLER ALIVE

April 22, 2024:

Ludhiana resident Neelam Kaur, 38, was on April 18, 2024 sentenced to death for burying alive Dilroz Kaur, the two-and-a-half-year-old daughter of her neighbour, Harpreet Singh, who is a police constable, after an argument with his family three years ago.
The court of sessions judge Munish Singal ordered that the murder convict be hanged to death for the brutal crime committed on November 28, 2021.
“We had urged the court to consider this a barbaric incident and impose death penalty,” said senior advocate Parupkar Singh Ghumman, who represented the victim’s family.
Neelam, a divorcee and mother of two boys, was held guilty by the court after arguments concluded on April 16 before she was sentenced on April 18.
On November 28, 2021, she kidnapped the toddler when she was playing in the lane at 2.15pm and drove off on her scooter to Salem Tabri, which is 13km away.
Ghumman said that Neelam had got the pit prepared earlier with the motive to kill the toddler.
The police swung into action half an hour later when the toddler’s grandfather, Shaminder Singh, reported the matter. Neelam even accompanied the police team along with the family members and other neighbours in looking for the toddler. It was only when the woman was questioned and shown the CCTV footage, she confessed,” the lawyer said.
Neelam was to shift from the Shimlapuri locality with her sons and parents the day she committed the crime, Ghumman added.
