After his wife’s death, Som allegedly locked his daughters into a room and dug another room in his courtyard and buried Lakshmi (31). On Tuesday morning he freed his daughters and drove them out of the house before absconding. The daughters narrated the incident to their neighbours, who informed the police.
The police then exhumed Lakshmi’s body and recorded version of the minor girls. The police arrested Som, tracking his cell phone’s tower location from an abandoned house in the farthest end of the village last night.
