"Indrajit Pathak (62), who is disabled, was bathing at a hand pump outside his home when his younger brother, Mahendra Nath Pathak (54), attacked him with a wooden plank, causing severe injuries. Aanchal, who is also disabled and moves on her knees, and other villagers alerted the authorities, and Indrajit was taken to the hospital, where he later died," she said.

Katyayan said that later that evening, an FIR was registered under IPC Sections 304, 504, and 506. The accused was arrested and sent to jail, and after the investigation, a charge sheet was filed in court.

The case concluded within five months.

The judge ordered the fine and directed that the decision be communicated to the District Legal Services Authority, asking them to ensure Aanchal receives other benefits from the government, he added.
