The strong coupling constants of newly observed $Ω_c^0$ baryons with spin $J = \frac{1}{2}$ and $J = \frac{3}{2}$ decaying into $Ξ_c^{+} K^{-}$ are estimated within light cone QCD sum rules. The calculations are performed within two different scenarios on quantum numbers of $Ω_c$ baryons: a) all newly observed $Ω_c$ baryons are negative parity baryons, i.e., the $Ω_c(3000)$, $Ω_c(3050)$, $Ω_c(3066)$, and $Ω_c(3090)$ have quantum numbers $J^P = \frac{1}{2}^-$ and $J^P = \frac{3}{2}^-$ states respectively; b) the states $Ω_c(3000)$ and $Ω_c(3050)$ have quantum numbers $J^P = \frac{1}{2}^-$ and $J^P = \frac{1}{2}^+$, while the states $Ω_c(3066)$ and $Ω_c(3090)$ have the quantum numbers $J^P = \frac{3}{2}^-$ and $J^P = \frac{3}{2}^+$, respectively. By using the obtained results on the coupling constants, we calculate the decay widths of the corresponding decays. The results on decay widths are compared with the experimental data of LHC Collaboration. We found out that the predictions on decay widths within these scenarios are considerably different from the experimental data, i.e., both considered scenarios are ruled out.
