Three Minor Sisters Die in Madhya Pradesh; Police Investigate Cause of Death
Three minor sisters, aged nine years, five years, and nine months, died in Madhya Pradesh's Chhatarpur district after reportedly consuming a meal including brinjal curry. The family buried the bodies without informing authorities, prompting police to exhume them for post-mortem examinations. Investigations are ongoing to determine whether food poisoning or other factors caused the deaths. Officials have seized food samples for forensic analysis, and the unusual burial instead of cremation has raised additional questions.
