Kendapada (Orissa): A 4-year-old girl in Orissa’s costal district of Kendrapara was on Friday set free after 50 days of jail term.
Kandhai Sahoo was lodged in the sub jail at Pattamundai in the district along with her father Trilochan, grandfather Haladhar and grandmother Sabitri on October 1, who had been charged with Sulochana’s death, the baby’s mother.
According to the police, the girl's mother died in a fire accident at her village Bachhara on Sep 29.
Police arrested Trilochan and his parents after Sulochana's mother Sebati Prusti lodged a complaint that her daughter was allegedly murdered by her husband and in-laws.
Police arrested Trilochan and his parents from their house and produced them in the court where the magistrate rejected their bail applications and remanded them in judicial custody.
As Kandhai was left alone in the house after the arrest of her father and grandparents, the police also lodged her in the same jail. The girl was handed over to Sebati Prusti, her maternal grandmother, Friday morning on the basis of a court direction, Patra said.
