The family of the victim alleged that Pannalal wanted a son as he already had five daughters.

They suspect he committed the crime to know if the baby was male or female according to The Hindustan Times.

In India, the preference of sons still remains strong, with boys addin,g to the family wealth, while daughters drain it with dowries.

According to Newsweek ‘sex selective abortions are widespread in India’ where families would prefer to have sons.

T,hey said according to a 2007 report by the International Center for Research on Women (ICRW) son preference in the county is a ‘well-documented phenomenon’.

This has implications for skewed sex ratios, female feticide and higher mortality rates for girls.
