A GASPARILLO man’s worst nightmare came to pass when his 30-year-old autistic daughter died after she was bound and gagged by intruders during a home-invasion at the victims’ house early yesterday morning. It is believed that Carla Archalal suffocated after cloth was stuffed in her mouth by the intruders, who then wrapped duct tape around her head, effectively sealing her nose and mouth.
