    What's the story

    A couple in Uttar Pradesh's Muzaffarnagar district has been arrested for allegedly sacrificing their one-month-old daughter.

    The incident occurred in Belda village of Bhopa area on Wednesday night.

    The police were alerted by neighbors who noticed the infant's absence.

    During interrogation, the parents confessed to killing their daughter and hiding her body in a jungle, following an exorcist's advice that this would cure the mother's prolonged illness.
