Doctors had tried various combinations of antibiotics to control the infection that had shown results and the baby was taken off the ventilator and shifted into a ward on 2 March. The toddler had shown signs of recovery and doctors were calling her the "miracle baby" after she was taken off life support within weeks of being admitted. Nurses who took care of her said she was able to breathe on her own and lift her eyes, and there was movement in the limbs. "She would cry and the whole unit would go to see what happened to her. Each one of us was so attached to the baby and now she is no more. It is disheartening," said one of the nurses. Moved by Falak's plight, many Indians as well as people abroad had offered to adopt her after she recovered. Falak suffered a third heart attack at 9.40 pm on 15 March 2012. All attempts by the doctors to revive her failed. Deepak Agrawal, an Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery at the AIIMS Trauma Centre who had been attending on her from the day she was admitted there, said, "Since hers (Falak) was a medico-legal case, a postmortem was conducted. The cardiac arrest happened due to cardiac arrhythmia, a disorder of the heart rate when the heart beats too quickly. It happened all of a sudden. She was sleeping in her bed when the cardiac arrest occurred". Baby Falak was buried at Ferozeshah Kotla burial grounds by her mother on 16 March 2012, after Child Welfare Committee's directions. Ten people were arrested in the case along with Rajkumar, alias Mohammad Dilshad (his real name) the man who had abandoned the baby along with his teenaged girlfriend Lakshmi. The girl herself was the victim of abuse at the hands of her father Vijender. On 13 March 2012, the teenager was arrested and will be tried for culpable homicide not amounting to murder. Falak's five-year-old brother was also traced from the house of a vendor in West Delhi's Uttam Nagar locality while her sister Sanobar was traced by Delhi Police from Muzaffarpur in Bihar. Doctors stated that she was playing with the nurses and had hence, been moved away from the ICU. On 15 February, Falak was reunited with her mother Munni, who was married to a man in Rajasthan. Her mother is now in a shelter at the Social Welfare Department's Nirmal Chaya Complex in New Delhi.
