MORADABAD: In a stomach-churning incident in Uttar Pradesh's Moradabad, parents allegedly killed and then buried their six-year-old daughter inside their home in Chaudharpur village. The girl was malnourished and had developed rickets, police say.

Police had reached Anandpal's home on neighbours' complain. On digging the ground, they found Tara's frail body. A tantrik had advised them that if they bury the girl's body at home, the next child will be healthy, reports news agency ANI.

Tara's grandmother said that since her mother did not want to part with her, so she buried her in the house itself and wanted to build a temple inside.

Talking about Tara's health, she told news agency ANI, "We tried several medicines, but nothing worked on her and she kept getting weaker. My grandson has also developed rickets."

The post-mortem of Tara's body revealed that there was not even a morsel of grain in her stomach and said that she died of suffocation.

"Post-mortem report has revealed that the girl was strangled to death," Ravindra Gaur, police officer from Moradabad said, adding that Tara's parents will soon be arrested.

Budaun (UP) (PTI): Two officials of an ethanol plant were shot dead on Thursday, allegedly by a blacklisted vendor, officials said.

The killings took place at a plant of Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) in Sejni village under the Musajhag Police Station area, they said.

Plant's general manager, Sudhir Kumar Gupta, and assistant general manager, Harshit Mishra, were shot dead in the attack.

District Magistrate Avnish Rai said the alleged shooter, Ajay Pratap Singh alias Ramu, a local, was once a vendor at the plant.

Sources said Gupta had recently terminated some employees and blacklisted vendors whose work was not satisfactory. Singh was among those removed.

Since the termination, Singh had been upset with the general manager and had threatened him several times, they said.

He once attacked Gupta's car, following which a case was registered against him at Dataganj Kotwali Police Station.

According to preliminary information, Singh came to the factory around 2 pm on Thursday and managed to cross the security gate before entering a conference room where Gupta was present.

He allegedly opened fire at him, and when Mishra intervened, he fired at him also. Both died on the spot, officials said.
