In a horrendous incident, a three-year-old child was allegedly stabbed to death by a “mentally ill” individual in Assam’s Cachar district.
According to reports, the incident took place on Monday morning when the person snatched the child from the mother stabbed him thrice with a machete.
The main reason for the attack is yet to be ascertained.
Moreover, the accused has been identified as Kamal Uddin.
Soon after the incident, locals apprehended Kamal and thrashed him. He was later handed over to the police.

The accused was a neighbor of the victim’s family and was mentally unstable hence it is hard to figure out why he committed the crime, a local said.
