A two-month-old baby girl was found dead inside a microwave oven in the Chirag Dilli area of south Delhi on Monday. A case of murder has been registered against unknown persons, she added.
"The infant's parents, Gulshan Kaushik and Dimple Kaushik, are being interrogated at the police station and further investigation is underway, Ms Jaiker said.
A senior police official said the initial investigation suggests that the baby's mother, who is the main suspect in the case, was upset over the birth of a girl child.
Benita Mary Jaiker, Deputy Commissioner of Police (South), said they got the information about the death of the baby at around 3.15 pm and all possible angles are being examined.
