Sahni raped the child on May 26. Times of India reported that he stabbed her multiple times in the neck, chest and abdomen, and slit her throat. She was initially admitted to the Sri Krishna Medical College and Hospital in Muzaffarpur, but on May 31, when her condition deteriorated, doctors there referred her the Patna hospital (PMCH).
Congress MP Ranjeet Ranjan told reporters in Delhi that the Muzaffarpur hospital’s initial recommendation had been that the minor be transported to AIIMS Patna, but claimed that that did not materialise due to administrative apathy.
