A 24-year-old Sikh mother was stabbed to death in the UK while she slept in bed with her newborn baby, prompting her grieving family to speak out about the shock and horror of losing her to violence in a country far from home. The family have described being stunned by what they call the "hooliganism and violence" they encountered surrounding her death, and are now appealing for her body to be released and returned to India so she can be laid to rest with relatives.

Beyond the family's public plea, the available report does not detail further specifics such as the location of the killing, the identity of any suspect, or the current stage of any police investigation. The case has drawn attention as a particularly distressing incident given the victim's age and the presence of her infant child at the time of the attack.
