In another incident, the police recovered the body of a female infant dumped in a sack near Farath Nagar canal bridge in the Dabeerpura police station limits on Thursday.
Dabeerpura sub inspector, A. Ravi Kumar, said it could be a case of the parents abandoning the child because she was a girl.
“The child might have died due to hunger and scorching sun,” Ravi Kumar told this newspaper.
