A Mumbai sessions court sentenced 44-year-old Nitin Pathare to life imprisonment for murdering a three-year-old boy in 2017. The child died after breaking a teacup, which angered Pathare, who strangled him. The victim's five-year-old sister witnessed the assault. Pathare buried the body twice to conceal the crime. The mother escaped after another assault and reported the incident to police. An autopsy confirmed the cause of death.
