A woman has been arrested for allegedly strangling her five-month-old daughter in Tripura’s Sepahijala district, officials said Monday, making it the second such incident in the state in the last few days. The Sonamura police station officer in-charge, Tapas Das, said that the police arrested Suchitra Debbarma for killing her infant daughter, Rimi, on Sunday when her husband Amit Debbarma went to work in a rubber garden. Locals said that the woman killed her baby girl to elope with a man she had been in a relationship with for more than a year. During the interrogation, the woman, say sources, admitted that she wanted to kill the baby and elope with another man.
