Pune : A deeply disturbing incident has shaken the Thergaon area of the Pimpri Chinchwad city. A mother is booked for allegedly brutally assaulting her daughter with bamboo and wooden sticks, resulting in the death of the 13 year old girl. 

The incident happened on 14 May at 11:30 am in Shivshambhu colony in Thergaon, said police. Police said that the accused is the stepmother of the girl and there were frequent arguments between them over petty issues.

Responding swiftly, the Wakad Police have filed a case against the mother following the untimely death of her daughter. Assistant Inspector Balaji Thakur lodged a complaint at the Wakad Police Station, charging the 30-year-old woman with assault. According to police information, a heated domestic argument over grocery shopping escalated into a violent altercation, culminating in the unfortunate death of the 13-year-old girl at the hands of her own mother.

During the assault, the girl suffered severe blows to her hands, legs, back, and face using the bamboo sticks and wooden sticks. The accused also allegedly inflicted serious injuries by striking the girl’s chest with her hands and feet. Tragically, the girl could not survive her injuries.
