A 28-year-old man was arrested for allegedly killing his seven-year-old daughter so that he could marry his sister-in-law, police said. Police said the accused, Dharambir, paid Rs 30,000 to his nephew, Sanjay (19), to help him kill the girl. The girl was taken to Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital on July 17 where she was declared brought dead. Dharambir told police that his wife died in June due to Hepatitis-B. Police said the woman allegedly told him she will marry him if he leaves or gets rid of his children because she will not be able to look after them.
