A 35-YEAR-old woman who is allegedly responsible for the death of her four-year-old daughter appeared in the Nausori Magistrates Court today.

Roseleen Razin Khan appeared for the first time before Magistrate Shageeth Samararatne charged with one count of murder.

The alleged incident took place last Sunday, May 6.

Ms Khan applied for bail but prosecutor Amelia Rokotuivuna objected saying it was a serious offence.

Magistrate Samararatne refused the bail application citing the seriousness of the alleged offence.

Ms Khan will be appearing in the High Court in Suva on May 23.
