n what appears to be a case of gender bias, a young woman in Coimbatore was killed by her husband allegedly for giving birth to a baby girl for the second time.

According to the victim's family members, twenty-year-old Nagadevi delivered a girl baby 40 days ago. This allegedly resulted in her daily harassment by her husband, Pandiarajan, a driver.

The couple, who reportedly fell in love and married, already have a one-year-old girl child; but the man wanted a baby boy. On Wednesday, the husband, who is known to be an alcoholic, allegedly kicked the young mother in her stomach. The injury resulted in bleeding and she died in hospital yesterday.

The family says they would fight for justice. Manjula says, "This has happened when Chief Minister Jayalalithaa has launched the cradle baby scheme to save the girl child. We need justice".
