Woman Arrested for Allegedly Killing Infant Son for Lesbian Lover in Tamil Nadu
A woman named Bharathi has two children and a husband.
Her husband found out she was in a relationship with another woman named Sumithra, and they started fighting.
Bharathi has a five-month-old baby son.
On November 2, Bharathi told her family the baby died by himself.
The family believed her and buried the baby.
But the baby's father was suspicious and told the police.
The police investigated and found messages and pictures between Bharathi and Sumithra.
They also found a picture Bharathi sent to Sumithra showing the dead baby.
Because of this evidence, the police arrested Bharathi and Sumithra.
They confessed to the crime, and Sumithra admitted to planning the baby's death.
Both women are now in jail.
A 25-year-old woman, Bharathi, and her lesbian partner, Sumithra, have been arrested for the murder of Bharathi's five-month-old son, Dhruvan.
Bharathi initially claimed her son died naturally, leading to his burial by the family.
Bharathi's husband, suspicious of his wife, alerted the Kelamangalam police, initiating an investigation.
Evidence, including a photo of the deceased child sent to Sumithra and intimate chats, confirmed the relationship and the alleged murder.
