Bengaluru Horror: Mother And Lover Kill Her 6-Year-Old Daughter; Police Launch Investigation

Bengaluru: A disturbing case from Bengaluru has turned into a full-fledged murder investigation after police booked a woman and her live-in partner for allegedly killing her 6-year-old daughter. The child was earlier believed to have died under unclear circumstances, but fresh findings have led investigators to treat the case as a planned murder. The victim, identified as 6-year-old Vennela, was found dead in Bengaluru’s Kadugodi area on March 25. Initial reports suggested an unexplained death, but inconsistencies in the case prompted police to take a closer look.
