Kerala Woman Arrested for Drowning Infant Son in Well
In Kerala, a woman named Mubashira has been arrested after her baby boy was found dead in a well.
The baby, who was only two months old, was allegedly thrown into the well by his mother.
Mubashira told the police that the baby accidentally fell into the well while she was giving him a bath.
However, the police found this hard to believe because the well had a cover and a grill.
Neighbors heard screams and found the baby, but he could not be saved even after being taken to the hospital.
Police questioned Mubashira and her relatives for two days before arresting her.
The investigation is ongoing to understand exactly what happened.
