The police also arrested his common-law wife J.T. (23) from the vicinity of Zajecar, for neglecting and abandoning a minor.

M N. is suspected of having hit the two-year-old daughter of his common-law wife several times on the head and body yesterday in a rented apartment in Zajecar, seriously injuring her. The child was transported to the Health Center in Zajecar, where she died.

It is suspected that the mother of the two-year-old girl knew that her common-law husband had beaten the girl in the previous period, but she did not report it to the police.

The suspects are being detained for up to 48 hours and they will be brought to the competent prosecutor's office in Zajecar along with a criminal complaint.
