A six-year-old girl was drowned in a water tank and her head was smashed with a stone to hide her identity after a failed rape bid, police said on Monday.
One of the meanings of ‘bid’ is to attempt to achieve something
e.g. “In a bid to escape, he jumped down the waterfall”
Doesn’t mean money is involved. But I agree it’s a poor choice of phrase for this headline.
And either way, very bad news =(
