Heartbreaking photos! Woman kidnaps and strangles lover's 5-year-old daughter to death after he refused to divorce his wife and marry her

An Indian woman has been arrested for the murder of a 5-year-old girl in India.

Anita Waghela, 22, lured five-year-old Anjali Saroj with chocolates, then kidnapped and strangled her to death in a women’s toilet at Navsari railway station in Gujarat. According to reports, Waghela killed the child as revenge after the girl's father refused to divorce his wife and marry her.

Anjali, from Nallasopara, Mumbai, India, lived with her parents in the same residential complex where Waghela lived. Manjunath Singe, superintendent of police, Palghar, said the accused had been involved with the child’s father Santosh Saroj, who is an auto driver, and had killed his daughter as revenge after the relationship failed.

 
The official added: "After the murder, Waghela took a shuttle train and came back to Nallasopara where she joined in the search for the girl."

The child’s body was found on Sunday, a day after she was abducted, by women passengers at Navsari who wanted to use the washroom. They reported to the authorities and investigation began.

 

The Tulinj police, who are investigating the case, got suspicious at Waghela's distress, and her over-enthusiastic and over-helpful behaviour, and questioned her. She was arrested on Tuesday and grilled and she eventually confessed.

"We have arrested her for kidnapping and murder and will produce her before Vasai court on Wednesday afternoon," the official said.
