A mother of two is being treated in hospital after bludgeoning her young daughters to death with a hatchet before attempting to kill herself, police said.
Naiyana Patel, 33, is said to have killed her daughters, aged seven and four, then tried to take her own life after a failed pregnancy.
The bloodbath at the family's home in Asheville, North Carolina, was discovered by her husband Lalji Patel, who found his daughters dead and wife injured on Saturday.

...must have REALLY wanted a son...
Dreadful. RIP.
“Naiyana Patel” damn Amish again.
She got mad at them when they refused to say who ate the cookies. “I’m not gonna axe you again...”
What kind of names are these?
Not sure in this case, but the vast majority of those with the surname Patel are Gujarati Hindu, not Muslim.

They are from India.
According to this article, the mother said a “ghost” killed the children.
Naiyana means EYES in Sanskrit.
Whoa. One of the worst cases of post-partum depression I’ve ever seen.
Texas mother who killed her five kids in bath tub.
Usually Hindu.
I knew a “Patel” who was an Indian Muslim, but I believe it is a very common Hindi name regardless of religion.
Let me guess, her attempt at suicide failed because she tried to bludgeon herself to death.?
That was my first thought that the pregnancy had been ended because it wasn’t a boy and her depression afterwards caused the killings.
Just a crazy. I seriously doubt the fact she is Indian and probably Hindu had anything to do with this.
Sad story.
