The victim's grandmother said, "We found out (about the death) at 4 o'clock when the locks were broken. We broke locks when we couldn't see the baby on the bed. The younger son started crying and asking where she is. We started looking. Everyone in the neighbourhood gathered. The door was then broken. Bed etc were checked. They searched upstairs but couldn't find her. Someone checked the oven and found her there."


A neighbour, who was part of the search and claimed to have found the baby, said, "There was commotion around two thirty, three o'clock that the baby is missing. Everyone came out of their homes. There was a crowd here. We asked what had happened. They said that the daughter-in-law was unwell and was taken to the hospital, and the baby can't be found. Police arrived, then cameras were checked. This went on for around 1.5, 2 hours. We also started checking and reached the second floor. An oven was kept there. We checked the refrigerator, bed etc. When we opened the oven, we found the baby wrapped in a cloth."
