Muskan's mother further claimed that her daughter used to hide a lot of things, and suspected that if she was brainwashed or did drugs. " I want to tell all the children out there that never hide anything from your parents. My child has committed a big mistake. I used to ask her continuously what the problem was, but she kept losing weight; she had lost 10 kg in 2 years. She hid a lot of things from us and that's why she is in jail today. We have no idea if she was brainwashed or did drugs...had she shared something with us, she wouldn't have been in this condition, "Muskan's mother Kavita told ANI.

" While we were going to the Police station, I stopped the scooter and spoke to her and told her to tell me the truth...then she confessed the truth that she and her friend together killed her husband, they put his body in a drum and placed cement on top of it. I took her to the Police station and asked her to tell the truth...that's how the case got solved. The verdict, in this case, should come fast and I don't want anything less than capital punishment for her...what she did is very wrong...my son-in-law should get justice," Muskan's father Pramod told ANI.
