“She always told me she doesn’t like to be with her stepmother. Sometimes she got beatings from her. Sometimes she grabbed her, threw her on the bed. I’m not thinking she’s going to kill her.”
- quote from Ashdeep's uncle
The family knew, they witnessed the abuse, Ashdeep told them she was scared, yet nobody did anything, and now it's too late. She was failed by the people who should have been protecting her!
Little 9yo Ashdeep Kaur came to the US from India with her father with dreams for a 'better life'...

http://nypost.com/2016/08/20/stepmom-questioned-in-suspicious-death-of-9-year-old-girl/The little girl was tossed around and hit — but adults in 9-year-old Ashdeep Kaur’s life didn’t think too much about it until she was found dead in an empty bathtub.
“That is how we grew up in Punjab. I was thinking, ‘It’s normal, it’s OK. It’s family,’ ” said Ashdeep’s uncle, Manjinder Singh.
Ashdeep’s stepmom, Arjun Samdhi Pardas, 55, has been charged with murder for allegedly strangling the girl....
...
The girl from Punjab, India, had been entrusted to Pardas’ care, even though relatives knew Ashdeep had accused her of abuse.
“She always told me she doesn’t like to be with her stepmother. Sometimes she got beatings from her,” Singh said. “Sometimes she grabbed her, threw her on the bed. I’m not thinking she’s going to kill her.”
Pardas was nowhere to be found when a housemate discovered Ashdeep’s body Friday evening in the bathtub of the family’s home
...
Ashdeep’s father, Sukjinder Singh, 35, pale from grief, had to be held up by relatives on Saturday as he left the 102nd Precinct station house.
The day before, upon learning his daughter was dead, Singh collapsed on the sidewalk.
Another relative... was stunned by Ashdeep’s killing.
“She came here for a bright future, you know?” he said. “She was going to go to school and everything. She didn’t deserve it. It’s heartbreaking. I still can’t believe that she’s gone.”
...
Ashdeep and her father arrived in the United States three months ago, police sources said.
Pardas seemed “very quiet, very nice, always smiling,” said her landlord, Sucha Singh.
Other neighbors said the tragic girl and her family lived in cramped conditions, sharing a two-bedroom apartment with another couple — the ones who found the girl’s body in the bathroom.

A 9-year-old Queens girl whose bruised, naked body was found in a bathtub was strangled by her wicked stepmom...Arjun Samdhi Pardas was charged Saturday with killing Ashdeep Kaur in the bathroom of their Richmond Hill home,
http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york...und-dead-bathtub-questioned-article-1.2758992Relatives said Ashdeep feared her stepmother, who comes from Guyana, and said the woman had hit the girl. They hadn’t thought the punishments rose to the level of abuse.
On Friday, a woman who shares part of the 112th St. home — including the bathroom — told Ashdeep’s dad that Pardas and his daughter had gone into the bathroom together, according to relatives.
The stepmother emerged alone and, before leaving the house with her two grandchildren, told the housemate the girl was still inside, taking a shower.
When the housemate went to use the bathroom about 6 p.m. she discovered the girl’s lifeless body in the bathtub.
...
The stepmother did whatever she did with her in the house,” another relative said. “The dead body was in the bathroom, and she ran away.”
Two children found with Pardas when she was arrested were put in the care of city child protective services...
A neighbor said Pardas had lived on the street for years, but didn’t get along with her family.
An autopsy was scheduled to determine how Ashdeep died.
Manjinder Singh was beside himself with grief and struggling with regret that he didn’t do more to protect his niece.
“She had been living with us two or three days, sleeping over,” he said, his voice cracking. “I shouldn’t have dropped her off. Her father said drop her home, and the second day, she’s dead.”
