Man hacks daughters to death

By Our Staff Correspondent

DEHRA DUN, FEB.3. In a ghastly incident, a father entered a school in Patas village of Almora district on Wednesday morning and allegedly hacked his two daughters aged seven and four years to death, according to delayed reports received here.

According to eyewitnesses, Tara Dutt entered the school and asked his children to come away with him. At this, the girls started crying and the teacher asked Tara Dutt to take the children home only after the lunch break. At this, the father allegedly took out a sickle and hit the girls on the head and fled. This led to panic among the school children and the teacher shouting for help. The villagers overpowered Tara Dutt and handed him over to the police.
