12 year old girl with class 9 boyfriend kills her adoptive mother

Fatehpur , Dec 27: A 12 year old girl along with her boyfriend killed her adoptive mother in Fatehpur on Sunday.

According to police the mother was against the girl's relationship with class 9 student. The girl invited her boyfriend to her house which infuriated her mother. The woman slapped her and asked the boy to leave.

The girl again called her boyfriend at night when the women was sleeping. The duo strangled her to death and left the house after locking the body in a room.

Kotwali station house officer Sunil Singh said "After committing the crime, the girl left the house with the boy and spent the night with him elsewhere. The next morning, after the duo had breakfast at a restaurant, they destroyed the cellphones,".

Around noon the next day, the girl returned to the house and approached a neighbour. She told him that her adoptive mother was lying motionless in the house, and obliquely blamed her condition on an ailment for which she had been consulting a doctor in Kanpur.

Upon discovering that the woman was dead, neighbours informed her husband in Mumbai. Everybody in the locality believed her story, and were in the process of preparing the body for burial when a suspicious neighbour informed the police.

The girl reportedly broke down under questioning on Tuesday noon, and confessed to her involvement in the murder. The boy was later picked up by the police.
