A 30-year-old woman and her two children, including a toddler, were charred to death in a fire which broke out when they were sleeping at their house in Hansawas village here, police said today.
The deceased have been identified as Reena Devi, her 5-month-old son Arun and 5-year-old daughter Anjali, they said.
They were taken to the civil hospital here last night where Arun was declared brought dead while Reena and Anjali succumbed to their burn injuries later, police said.
However, the reason behind the fire was yet to be ascertained.
Meanwhile, on the complaint of Reena's father Bhag Mal, police registered a murder case against Reena's husband Pawan, mother-in-law Sunehri Devi and brother-in-law Daulat Ram.
Bhag Mal alleged that his daughter had complained that her in-laws were harassing her for dowry.
