A 37-year-old man allegedly killed his live-in partner and her minor daughter following frequent quarrels and dumped their bodies in a sewer near Gandhidham in Gujarat’s Kutch district, the police said. The accused, Sanjay Singh, was arrested on Sunday and charged with murder, said inspector of the Gandhidham “B” division police station, SS Desai.
Three days ago, Singh, a plumber, repeatedly hit his 41-year-old live-in partner and her daughter (13) with a stick on their heads, leaving them dead, he said. “Singh took both of them to a nearby forest on his motorbike and killed them by hitting on their heads with a stick. He then dumped their bodies in a sewer,” Mr Desai said.
