The horrifying incident took place in August last year. It was when the mother was giving baths to Sara and her twin brothers when one of the boys asked for a toy. The mother had left the tap running without the plug so the tub does not get full. Sara's mother went to get the toy but when she returned, the infant was lying on her side in the bath with her face under the water. Reportedly, another toy got stuck in the plug causing the water to fill up the tub. Madhya Pradesh Shocker: Three-Month-Old Baby Dies of Pneumonia After ‘Healer’ Brands Her With Hot Iron Rod 51 Times in Shahdol.
