Mother Sentenced for Son's Murder
A woman named Jyoti Rathore was sentenced to life in prison for a very sad and serious crime.
She threw her son from the second floor of their house because she was afraid he would tell her husband about her secret boyfriend.
Her son saw her with her boyfriend, and she didn't want anyone to find out.
The boy got very hurt and died the next day.
The police found out what happened and the court decided that Jyoti was guilty.
Her boyfriend was not punished because there wasn't enough proof against him.
The family was very sad, and the mother eventually felt very bad about what she did and told her husband the truth.
