PANAJI, India – An accident near the border of Goa led to the arrest of a Bengaluru woman accused of killing her four-year-old son in a service apartment in Candolim. Suchana Seth was taken into custody in Chitradurga, Karnataka, and brought back to Goa for further investigation.
The accident caused a major traffic jam near the Goa border and delayed the suspect’s escape to Bengaluru. This delay allowed the police to apprehend the suspect and retrieve the child’s body before she could leave the state.
According to the police, the suspect allegedly killed her son over a custody battle with her estranged husband. Court documents show that the couple had been involved in a domestic violence case and that the suspect had sought a restraining order against her husband.
The woman, identified as the CEO of Mindful AI, denies her involvement in the crime and claims that the child was already deceased when she woke up. However, evidence found at the crime scene suggests that the murder was planned, including the discovery of empty bottles of cough syrup and marks on the child’s body indicating smothering.
After staying in the service apartment for two days, the suspect left for Bengaluru in a taxi. She has since been remanded in police custody for six days by a court in Mapusa town, Goa. The victim’s father has claimed the child’s body, and the investigation into this tragic incident continues in both Goa and Karnataka.
In conclusion, the arrest of a high-profile CEO in connection with the murder of her young son has shocked and saddened communities in both Goa and Karnataka. The legal process will now play out as authorities gather evidence and conduct further interviews to seek justice for the victim and his family.
