A three-year-old girl was repeatedly stabbed by her mother who then doused her body in acid, a court has heard.
Alia Jama's mother Iman Omar Yousef, 25, from Birmingham, has been declared unfit to stand trial.
A jury at Birmingham Crown Court has instead been asked to decide if she unlawfully killed her daughter, but to disregard any question of intent.
The child's body was found at a house in Milverton Road, Erdington, in February.
'Shocking sight'
James Burbidge QC told the jury that on the day Alia's body was found two officers from West Midlands Police went to the address after concerns were raised by Yousef's mother.
"What they found was truly a shocking sight," he said.
Alia was found on the floor, with her body in a state of decomposition. - BBC
