A mother drowned her baby daughter in a bucket while her boyfriend watched live over the internet.
Norwegian Yasmin Chaudhry killed the one-year-old by plunging her into a bucket of water during a 3am Skype video call with her British partner.
Chaudhry, 26, said she had just wanted to discipline her baby for waking up and ‘disobeying her’.
She called an ambulance and initially told paramedics that the baby had fallen into the bucket by accident.
The girl was unconscious when the paramedics arrived and was pronounced dead the next day, in October 2010.
Chaudhry was initially arrested on suspicion of negligence because of inconsistencies in the stories she gave to police and the paramedics, but is now facing a preliminary charge of murder.
‘This has been a long investigation and she eventually admitted it to us in October 2011,’ Norwegian police prosecutor Kristin Rusdal told MailOnline.
‘She said it was done to discipline the child. She had been holding her under water.
‘She had discussed the discipline with this friend, with whom she had a relationship. They met online and had met in person only once.
Chaudhry claimed that her boyfriend – who is not the child’s father – told her to do it.
Both she and the Briton deny wanting to kill the baby.
