- Doctors at Civil Hospital, Sector 10, declared the child dead, and the mother was shifted to a private facility with severe neck wounds from a scissors and remains in critical condition.
- Police registered a murder case on the husband's complaint and said they will question and arrest the woman after doctors declare her fit for a statement.
- Investigators flagged conflicting early accounts of the child's death, with some reports citing strangulation and others pointing to suspected poisoning that only a postmortem can confirm.
