A 36-year-old woman and her seven-year-old daughter were found murdered at their house in Mohna village of Kaithal district on the intervening night of Wednesday and Thursday. The woman’s son (11) was seriously injured.

The police have arrested a person who — as per the police – has confessed to the crime and told the police that he killed them for easy money as he wanted to flee with the money to his native state.

The deceased have been identified as Geeta and her daughter Samriti. Her son Suksham is undergoing treatment at the hospital.

The accused identified as Ismile Ali alias Raju, a resident of Uttarpulwari village in Agartala district in Tripura, was working at the neighbouring house.

He was sacked by the neighbour and wanted to return to his native state. So, he planned this crime, said Lokendera Singh, Superintendent of Police, Kaithal.

In his police complaint, Sanjeev Kumar, brother-in-law of the deceased woman, stated that his sister-in-law and niece were murdered with a sharp-edged weapon. His nephew has sustained injuries on the head.

“Ismile Ali will be produced in court on Friday,” said the SP.
