Mother kills disabled children, commits suicide
D.N.I.S. News Network -In a shocking
incident, a 36-year-old woman drove herself and her two mentally disabled
children to death at Paud near Pune.
What initially
seemed to be an accident, later proved to be a suicide, with three suicide
notes left by the young mother Neha addressed to her
husband, brother-in-law and her mother, throwing light on the incident.
Police
informed that in the notes, Neha had urged her
mother, husband and brother-in-law to forgive her drastic step saying she had
failed to take proper care of the two children.
What needs to
be probed is the actual reason behind the woman killing herself and both her
mentally disabled children. The fact that she drove herself to death in an Opel Corsa suggests that she was
from a well to do family. And yet, she had to take this very extreme step.
