London, Feb 21 (IANS) An Indian-origin toddler has died after falling with her mother from the window of a house in the British city of Bradford.
The 22-months-old girl, identified as Amrita Kaur Thursday, died Tuesday morning after she was found unconscious outside a house along with her mother, the Mirror reported Thursday.
Amrita’s mother, 36, was also injured in the accident. She was later arrested on suspicion of her daughter’s murder.
Both were taken to a hospital where Amrita died soon afterwards, the report said. Her mother was still in the hospital in a critical condition.
They were discovered in the back garden of the house by a neighbour.
It appeared that both of them had fallen from a first-floor window.
Neighbours said they believed the woman and the child had lived in the house for around three months.
“Police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident,” a police spokesman was quoted as saying.
A post-mortem report revealed that Amrita died of “injuries consistent with a fall”.
