Hyderabad: A three-year-old girl was brutally thrashed by her father on Monday as a result she went into coma. The incident occurred under the jurisdiction of Saifabad police station where a case has been registered against the girl’s father Basith Khan.

Fathima tried to intervene but was pushed away by Basith who dropped the girl on the floor in anger. Fathima found froth coming out of child’s mouth. She rushed her to a nearby clinic but was referred to the Osmania General hospital, where she is in coma.
