Sanjay Roy’s Niece Found Dead At Alipore Home

As a report in ETV Bharat has indicated, the victim was a student of Class 6. The little girl was rushed to the SSKM Hospital just beside, and doctors pronounced her dead on admission.

As noted in the report, nobody had been home at the time they were raped because the stepmother of the victim had gone out to purchase crackers to celebrate Diwali.

As sources in Lalbazar, the Kolkata Police headquarters, the mother of the victim had committed suicide several years ago and her father had remarried their sister-in-law. The girl had been living with her aunt since that time.

Police Investigate Family Disputes

Police received reports that there was a lot of quarrelling that was frequently reported to happen within the house of the victim by their neighbours. On the incident day, the stepmother visited the market and when she returned at the end of the day, she could not get a response when she called the girl by repeatedly calling her name.

As she broke into the house, she was not able to find the girl, but when she opened a cupboard she saw her dead body. The report was immediately reported to the police.
