Qureshi Khatun was at home yesterday when her relative, Mohammad Shakeel, came with a sharp edged weapon and slit her throat as he blamed her for the death of his child, Chandrapura police station in-charge Ramji Mahato told reporters here.

Shakeel was arrested immediately after the crime, he added.

The police officer said Shakeel alleged that Khatun practised witchcraft which was responsible for his child's death.

This is the second such incident in Jharkhand this month. On March 9, a woman was killed in Simdega after being branded a witch.
