Texas Mom Says She Killed Kids Because They Were Austistic

The Irving, Texas, mother accused of strangling her two children earlier this week told a 911 operator she did so because they were both autistic and she wanted normal children, MyFoxDFW.com reported Wednesday.

Police say the mother, 30-year-old Saiqa Akhter, strangled Zain, 5, and Faraal, 2, and then called 911.

She can be heard in an audio recording of that call repeating, “I kill my both kids. They are died.”

The Pakistani-born Akhter also told the operator that she tried to make the children drink bathroom cleaner, but they wouldn’t swallow. So instead she wrapped wire around their necks until “they are no more.”

“I know the policeman come to pick me,” she said, according to the recording.

When the operator asked Akhter why she did it, she explained both her children were autistic.

“Both are autistic. I don’t want my kids to be like that. I want normal kids,” she said. “I don’t want my kids to be autistic. I kill both of them.”
