Patna: A woman who was jailed in 2015 for murdering her husband is finally hopeful of getting back her child who was declared dead twice by the police, municipal officials, and local panchayat representative. Munni Devi, 27, has been fighting a long legal battle to reunite with her 7-year-old child.
On Tuesday, a division bench of Justice A Amanullah of the Patna High Court heard the matter. After seeing the pictures and documents produced by Munni, the court was convinced that the child was alive. Gaya SSP Harpreet Kaur investigated and recovered the child from Munni's in-laws' house. Now she is hopeful of getting her child back with the intervention of the High Court.
Munni claimed that she was implicated in a false case. "I was falsely implicated in the murder of my husband, as the body was found on the road in Kathautia-Ghutiatola of Magadha Medical Police Station, near my parent's house. All my family members were arrested on 24th May 2015. My father-in-law, Kishori Yadav had filed an FIR against all of us.
