The incident came to light when Vaishali’s 11-year-old brother Abhishek woke up and found her body in a pool of blood around 8 a.m. in their house.
Vaishali’s throat was slashed and her chest was apparently hit with an iron rod, police said.
The children’s father, Atul, 38-year-old labourer, who had gone to the market at the time of incident, reported the matter to police when he returned home.
