Three-Year-Old Boy Dies in Uran; Stepfather Arrested for Alleged AssaultPreviousNext

A three-year-old boy named Moksh Bhise died in Uran after allegedly being beaten by his stepfather, Jitendra Bhise, following a dispute over the child's desire to live with his biological father. The stepfather initially claimed the child fell from a bed, but a post-mortem revealed multiple injuries and fractures, leading police to treat the case as homicide. Bhise was arrested and is in custody. The boy's mother was away during the incident, and police intervened before last rites could be performed.
