“As soon as the police found something suspicious, that woman was immediately arrested. An investigation is going on, and police will reach the very end of the case,” Sawant said. On Tuesday, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of a start-up company in Bengaluru identified as Suchana Seth was arrested for allegedly murdering her minor son at a hotel in Goa.

Police said that the accused woman was caught in Karnataka’s Chitradurga district while trying to flee in a cab with her son’s body stuffed in a bag. “A woman asked the hotel staff to arrange a taxi for Bengaluru. After the checkout, when the hotel staff went to clean the room, they found red-coloured stains, which they assumed to be blood. The staff immediately informed the police,” said Nidhin Valsan, Superintendent of Police, North Goa.
