Tripura, Aug. 10 -- A five-month-old baby girl was allegedly killed by her own mother at Rampada Para ADC village under Sonamura subdivision in Tripura's Sepahijala district after the woman suspected the child was born out of an extramarital relationship.

Family members identified the accused as Suchitrabala Debbarma, who was reportedly involved with her father-in-law's cousin, Nirmal Debbarma.

Upon suspecting that the infant was the biological child of her lover rather than her husband, Suchitrabala allegedly decided to end the baby's life.

Her husband, Amit Kumar Debbarma, had accepted the child, but frequent quarrels in the household over the baby's paternity continued.
