The Delhi police registered a case against a mother, who punished her 5-year-old daughter by tying her hands and legs with a rope and abandoning her on the roof of a house under the scorching heat of the sun. The incident took place in Tukhmirpur in Delhi’s Karawal Nagar.

In the video, the child can be seen tied with a rope on the roof of a house, struggling to set herself free amid the heat. The child can be heard screaming in pain as her skin is apparently burning due to the scorching heat.

The police have registered a case under Section 75 of the Juvenile Justice Act (Punishment for cruelty to child).

The kid’s uncle Sunil said, “The mother of the girl tied her hands and legs and made her sit on the rooftop in the scorching sun. She was irked by her not doing the homework. She kept lying in the sun for a long time. When the rest of the family members came to know about it, they brought her down.”
Elaborating on the angry nature of the kid’s mother, he said that she keeps beating her kids for small issues.

“Her mother is a person with an angry nature. She beats her kids on every small issue. If somebody from the family tries to come in between, she says that it is their kids and only she has rights over them. She was not like this before, she has become like this in the past two to three years,” Sunil said.
The kid’s aunt Pooja said that the mother of the girl has a habit of picking up a fight with other members of the family.
“She argues over small things with the other members of the family as well. She not only behaves like this with her daughter but also with her 6-year-old son. If we try to stop her, she beats them even further. So, we have stopped telling her anything,” she said.
Pradeep, who lives in the neighborhood said, “Everybody in the area knows that she beats her kids a lot. She had once made her son stand naked in the winter in the lane. The neighbors had offered clothes to the kid thereafter,” he said.

The mother of the child told the police that she had punished her daughter for five to seven minutes for not completing her homework and later she brought the child down.

After the video went viral, the police traced out the family and registered a case against the woman.
