The Supreme Court overturned a woman's murder conviction for killing her daughters, citing a possible temporary mental disorder. The Anganwadi worker from Chhattisgarh claimed 'invisible powers' influenced her actions. The court converted the conviction to culpable homicide, noting the lack of motive and her history of unusual behavior, ordering her release after 10 years in jail.
