New York: A nine-year-old Indian girl, Ashdeep Kaur, was found dead in the bathtub with bruises on her body in her house, with police charging her step-mother for allegedly strangling her on Friday.
Ashdeep had moved to Queens from India just three months ago and lived with her father Sukhjinder Singh and her stepmother Arjun Samdhi Pardas along with another couple.
The housemate had seen Ashdeep going in the bathroom with Pardas, who later came out alone and left the building. She allegedly said that Ashdeep was taking a bath.
When Ashdeep did not come out, the housemate checked and discovered her lifeless body in the bathtub that had no water. Police found Pardas several hours later at another location.
Ashdeep&rsquo;s relatives said the girl had been previously allegedly abused by Pardas.
&ldquo;She always told me she does not like to be with her stepmother. Sometimes she got beatings from her,&rdquo; Ashdeep&rsquo;s uncle Manjinder Singh said.
Ashdeep&rsquo;s mother, who lives in India, was devastated by the news.
