BAGHPAT: A day after the 19-year-old sister of a UP man accused of “abducting” a village girl he loved took poison and died after alleged “abuse and harassment” by local cops, his mother and second sister, 17, also died on Thursday in Baghpat’s Bachaur village. The three of them had consumed poison after a police team raided their house in search of the youth, a 22-year-old called Prince.
Seventeen-year-old Preeti Singh and her mother, 47-year-old Geeta, were cremated on Thursday by Prince’s distraught father, 55-year-old Mehak. It came a day after he had overseen the final rites of his other daughter, Swati.
